Hey Zeno, how've you been man?
Crazy how they got away with that. My family had a 35" 90s Trinitron and it was impossible to move. The sides actually felt like 2 liter plastic coca cola bottles.
Personally, the only Sonys I would pick up after the early 80s are the PVM monitors. Sad how shortlived some of those CRTs were though.
