Mitsubishi has long been a name associated with big-screen rear projection TVs, and they are associated as being the last stand for DLP displays. I guess one can only hold out that long, as Mitsubishi has finally announced that they will no longer be churning out DLP displays as part of a corporate restructuring process. Mitsubishi Electrical Visual Solutions America, Inc.
