Why are Sony Wegas so damned heavy?

[Bob]

If you examine your Sony Wega Theater System carefully, you'll see that there are, infact, a dozen or so tiny cameras around the outside. These transmit live video feed of you struggling to carry the thing so that all the guys (and gals) at Sony can have a good laugh. The weight, of course, comes from all the transmission equipment required to send 12 simultaneous live video feeds. The cameras are, of course, only activated on movement, and the massive weight of the TV helps in that regard too, as it means that minor things like earthquakes and nuclear explosions don't cause it to make them watch all those video feeds just to see that you aren't really struggling to move it.
