No, it is not alright to replace a 180 watt DLP TV bulb with a 200 watt bulb. You should only use the OEM rated size/wattage for your TV.

Usually replacement DLP bulbs can be bought at local TV repair stores or warehouses in the area. Another option is to use the repair service of the brand of the device the bulb is needed for.
The DLP technology has traditionally had more issues than it's Plasma or LCD counterparts. The reasoning behind it was more moving parts (color wheel) and maintenance (bulb replacement). That being said the Mitsubishi brand did have a very good track record among DLP manufacturers.
Yes it is competitve with LCDs.Neither one is better than the other.Both has equal pros and cons.And even Plasma and DLP projectors are competitive.
DLP stands for Digital Light Processing. For more information on DLP please visit http://tv.about.com/od/projectiontv/a/dlpintroduction.htm. I hope this helps
DLP is digital light processing and LCD is liquid crystal display.
A DLP lamp is used to power what is seen on a rear-projection television, and is also used in modern color digital projectors. Digital cineman projection also used DLP technology.
The LCD is good but doesn't come in true 1080i resolution. An LED-DLP would work the best as it has darker blacks and overall better quality.
A Mitsubishi DLP lamp varies in price depending on the model it is required for and prices may be approximately $35-$40 with DLP lamps for different models being available on Amazon.
Yes cheap DLP tvs are readily available from Ebay sellers, ranging anywhere from new from the box to used. http://popular.ebay.com/consumer-electronics/dlp-tv.htm
