Got lots more here since we talked, a really nice Aquos LCD... with a smashed screen, a couple of RCA 30" with defective processors, and a Sony 40" LCD with a bad processor board. COmes up fine for about 30 seconds, then develops H lines, shifts color, and eventually blanks out completely.

I've scoped the output of the processor connector to the LCD driver board at the top of the panel, and when the panel flakes out, the video goes flaky, so I've diagnosed it to the processor board.
