The weight will depend on what TV Type you select, what components and more. Some ultra-light setups can weigh as little as 20 pounds while older CRT based Televisions can literally be hundreds of pounds.
Wide Screen
The term used to describe a screen that has an aspect ratio that is wider then the NTSC 4:3 ratio. Most HDTVs and EDTVs have an aspect ratio of 16:9 as do most major motion pictures. When motion pictures are converted to NTSC television the image is squeezed and cropped so it will fit the smaller, 4:3 screen.
