RE: The Modern Miracle of Disposable Technology
Try asking at the thrift (charity) shops. Our local St. Vincent de Paul's takes obsolete tech and turns it in to recycle.

I've seen thrift shops turn these behemoth TV's away, they take up too much space and nobody wants them, only good for whatever precious metals may be extracted.
I've seen someplces that don't want them too. I found our place by running past the back door where they take donations and seeing the big pile of electronics. That was a few years ago though. I haven't paid much attention since. There's a lot to love about the newer larger screen TVs that take up less space in the living room. People certainly took to them quickly. I have to admit that they are light years away from the one with tubes that everyone had when I was young.
Especially in weight. I had a freind with a 32" CRT flatscreen, we helped him move once, never again... Too damn heavy.
