I had a big-screen crt tv, before flat-screens became a thing, and I shit you not, it weighed almost 300 pounds

I had a 48 incher downstairs, the goddamn thing needed wheels to move. The thing was awesome though, coming home after basketball practice + extra games at the rec, either putting on seinfeld, everybody loves raymond or nba games... and then doing some homework before I passed out (i tended to do most my homework in class except essays.. and that was just so I could get everything else done fast and sleep)

Yeah, if you had a big-screen you were definitely hot stuff. The coolest thing in the world was in the early 80s my parents bought a giant rear projection tv and everyone that came to our house was just blown away. I have no idea what it weighed given that it was a giant wood box with four projectors, four speakers and a big plastic screen. It must have been hundreds of pounds but once they bought it and had it put in the den we never moved it again

I had to move mine a few times; cat would try and hide and get stuck.

Ya'll don't even know. Those things weighed a ton and it was all lopsided. They didn't have places to grip them and if they did it was usually a single hand slot on the back which meant if you tried to pick it up it'd fall forward onto the screen cause that's where the weight was.

on the plus side, your TV would never break if dropped... no remorse for the floor though

these kids don't even know. My 28 inch in 1995 weighed more than my 50 inch today.
