Yeah, definitely go with a new set. But don't throw the old one in the trash. Run an ad in your student newspaper (cheap or free) or put some flyers up for your TV at like $50. Just disclose what is wrong with it (needs new transformer). You might be able to recoup at least a little bit of change from it. Some engineering student who is good with electronics will pick up your TV for $50 and put the $70 part in it and have a working 35" TV. Everybody wins.
I understand where you are at having recently been a grad. student myself. Every $50 counts!
