And that's no longer simple. The trash pickup won't take it, and it now costs $25 per unit in my area to dispose of.


Around here, Best Buy takes everything - no cost. The Township takes electronics four times per year, but one must be a township resident.

We have a very large Sony WEGA that followed us back from Saudi in 2005 (purchased in 2002), that has given us no trouble whatsoever. Interesting set, smart tuner, smart power-supply, almost nothing inside other than a (rather small) circuit board and the CRT, and a rather decent picture.
