I remember owning a 27 inch RCA CRT. It was a pain to carry. I could not imagine this thing.

A few years back someone near me was giving away a (basically) brand new 40" Sony one with the stand. Took three of us a lot of effort to get that thing into my house.

No, the 40" ones are common. They were sold in the USA. You can find them on Craigslist etc (where I found mine). The 43" and 45" are the rare ones.

Here's a pic of one:

Oh no, another useless craving I didn’t know I had, unlocked. :)
