| When situations like your arise they ought to just put huge ladders outside so you can just climb up and then jump in through the window. |

The Toshiba 51" CRT weighs 169 lb.
He didn't say that it was Sony. Toshibas weighed (and cost) considerably less. He also didn't say that it was in 1990. They were much cheaper towards the end of the decade. My dad would have never spent over 2 grand on a TV. For all we know, it was fairly recent and he'd purchased the TV for cheap, second hand.
Don't make assumptions based on retail at time of release. |
Read my post again. I didn't mention nor imply it was 1990. I was merely pointing out how difficult it was to transport a DIRECT VIEW CRT TV of that size by using someone else's quote.
However, I think the problem is that you guys are talking about rear projection TVs. When declan74 mentioned a TV "with the big picture tube in the back" I assumed he was talking about a direct view CRT TV and limited my comments appropriately to direct view TVs. Apparently, his idea of "big" is radically different than mine. (Insert male member joke here.) So I stand by my statement, it would have been impossible for him and his friend to lift a direct view TV of that size up 10 floors. |
Yes,I googled rear projection tv and it certainly was one of those types.Not a huge bulging picture tube in the back but far from a flat screen as well. I'd estimate it weighed about 80-90 pounds. |

| Some older high-rises here have no elevators. Had one friend who lived on the 12th floor in an building built in the 80's with no elevator. It was always a hassle visiting him. |

| 5th floor currently and moving to a 4th floor unit. Kind of a drag hauling the bikes up and down for a ride, but you get used to it. |
