    That's pretty funny since it's illegal to throw away CRTs. =x

    On topic, I've thought about it, but it just does not seem worth the effort and space to me. I've got a nice 19" and 13" that are pretty easy to move, but I just do not want to deal with a heavy piece of furniture like that. I've moved some other CRTs that were just in the 20"s and just that was enough of a pain to not be worth it. I see it like even if I do move that monster into my house, I'm going to have to move it out again some day when it finally breaks down.
