I had a similar story. I replaced my 19" Sony with a 36" Sony, and then that was replaced with a 40" Mitsubishi flatscreen. I marveled at how the original 19" that I had for years was the same size as the picture-in-picture in the newer TV.

Now I have a 75" UHD 4K. It makes me think that I was originally like the people in the 1950s with 10" B/W TVs and a magnifier!

Right after 9-11 happened, I sped to Wal-Mart and grabbed the last portable TV they had, a 10” B&W Sony for my office at the Nursery/Gdn Ctr I owned, and I, my staff and customers were transfixed by the day’s events. I sent out for 5 pizzas and Cokes for all crowded into my office. While everyone else watched, I checked my Canon T6 gunsafe (6ft wide x 7.5ft tall).
