Its difficult to say people didn't buy toshiba because they not in this forum. In my observation, most of toshiba user are not the lowyat member.

Second scenario, they really didn't have a problem and no need to vote.

5 years ago before i buy a new plasma TV, i went to electronic shop (not selling shop, but repairing shop) and ask them which brand they receive most to repair. So i suggest other people can use that method also.

The answer i got from that technician is they repair a lots of philips and samsung tv. However, this doesn't mean data was accurate that much because from my observation at their shop, they repair a lots of crt tv. Only a few LCD or flat tv panel at that time. Based on that, it just gave me some idea regarding brand.
