Yes very true. Chroma II's and XL-100s do show up every so often. That will be the death some of the best sets ever. Lots of those seem to still be out there working just fine.
I can't tell you how many people ask me at the estate sales what Im going to do with all my old TVs once the transition takes place. Its annoying too, as it makes you wonder if people have seen the millions of digital converter box commercials.

I guess its like the old sayinig "its not cable ready" so that means the TV is junk. Yet people didn't realize for the last 30 years that you can tune the old TV to channel 3 and watch it through a cable box or VCR. WTF are people thinking? We're seeing the same thing with the digital converter box now.
