I know that he stated he thought it was 150 pounds - but... that's not
even likely. Think of the last console TV you lifted from back in the
80's - they weren't that heavy. More like 40-60 lbs.


I had a 32" HD TV by Phillips. It is the largest HD TV made with a CRT. It
weighed 185 pounds. Took two of us to get it unloaded and lifted onto the
stand. A flat screen of that size is about 30#.
