Accommodating newer technology

We did some furniture/TV shifting last night. We moved a smallish flat screen that travels to the lake house in the summer to my condo office and put the one that had a "hang-over" in the bedroom. But now the cat can't sit on it. But that meant we had to move some tables, too, since the little table wouldn’t hold the heavier TV in the bedroom.  Then that moved table didn’t seem steady, so I weighted it down with a very heavy piggy bank.

With our son-in-law’s help finding the bargain we bought a new TV (RCA) at Best Buy with a built in DVD player for the family room (aka office, aka man cave).  He loves to shop at that store and knew all the questions to ask.  It takes up a lot less room than the monster that was there, but he took it home to use in his basement exercise room—which seems only fair since it belonged to them. Flat screens don’t view well from the side like the rounded screens, but because they are so much lighter in weight, it’s not difficult to adjust them.
