Yeah. Especally with the 2009 switchover to digital coming closer. I sometimes find TV's that work fine, usually sitting next to an empty box that contained a HDTV inside it.
And fujifrontier: If I didn't have three other TV's that are as good or better then that one, yes I would have hooked a VCR to it and used the AV inputs. As it is, I have a 27 inch TV that has S-video and composite inputs, a working tuner, and audio outputs as well as functioning speakers. I have another TV with all those features, and it's a 36 inch TV. The Sony had speakers with rotted surrounds, no S video, and it was a HEAVY beast!
Believe me, I tried to save this one, but like radiotvnut said, sometimes you got to draw the line.
