Back in the day, this was the “new hotness.” 25” screen. Color picture. Made by Zenith, it weighed just under 200 pounds. For a little more money, it even came with a remote control.

Contrast that with today’s hotness: Samsung’s new OLED television. With a 55” screen, it’s about as thick as 3 credit cards and weighs as much as a 3 month old baby. It’s 3D and internet compatible. And there is no remote option.
