Thanks everyone for your replies, looks like it is time to take it in. (I
knew I bought a truck for some reason)

et...
I have a less than 2 year old KV-35S42 TV (bought November 2001) that has
been showing signs of horizontal lines running across the screen. It is not
limited to one or two lines, but runs from top to bottom (probably about 30
total). During bright scenes, the lines are not noticeable, but during dark
scenes (or parts of the picture) they are.

This is the 2nd Sony TV that has given me problems in past 3 years and don't
want to throw a lot of money at a problem that may reappear. This problem
appears regardless of input or what is plugged into the TV. it exhibits
this problem when it is the only thing in the room with nothing connected
(no cable, s-video, etc).

Any ideas if it is worth repairing this TV that I paid $650 for less than 2
years ago?

Thanks,
Travis
