2500 hours and I can't say that the picture is any different. But years is a long time to remember. I guess I will find out when I put the new bulb in. I just wanted to make sure that if the bulb blow(ed) up that it wouldn't damage the projector.
Thanks

Check the warranty of the replacement lamp. Many are based on days from receipt or shipment of the lamp not hours used. If this is your case then you should at least put it in and test it. Probably bet to actually use it for the length of the warranty so if it does go out you can get it replaced.
What I usually do is put the new lamp in immediately and just start using it while keeping the old lamp as a spare.

I have purchased from Projectorquest before. They do not sell the low quality lamps and they ship to Canada. Definitely agree that you should check the warranty on the lamp. Can confirm it is based on time since purchase, but sometimes the hours as well.

Reviving a 6 year old thread doesn't happen every day. LOL
