Me too. It was an anchor. I had a couple of movers nearly drop it once. Getting it out of my house was a great accomplishment (I felt like a great weight had been lifted). At the time it was a definite improvement in video quality (IIRC my first real 1080p, coupled with HDTV) and I still find it crazy I can buy larger, better screens that are lighter and cheaper. Clearly, you can scale up tubes but it's just not going to win against LCD or LED.
