I have a T42 that looks like the backlight has just gone on it. This
was a used display I bought after the original died. Now I'm=20
wondering what the expected life of a display is?

The T21 I'm using right now seems to be good so far. No idea of it's
age though it must be getting on a bit.

So how long do these things keep going for?

Also I noticed the screen had a pink tinge to it on boot. Is this a
sign of anything about to go?

Don't look back, the lemmings are gaining on you.
