2013 when I moved house and decided it was easier to buy a new TV than break several family member's backs lugging my gigantic CRT up the many uneven steps leading to my new house. In retrospect I wish I'd just compensated them for any potential injury since there was nothing like it for playing pre-HD games.
HD didn't impress me, it sometimes looks pretty nice and maybe I couldn't go back but the lack of a significant improvement reinforced my already held belief that I should just skip 4K and wait for 8K, 12K whatever comes next.
Actually I just remembered I did buy an HD TV in 2007 (can't remember if it was 720 or 1080) but returned it the same day when I was utterly unimpressed with it and that was before I got my 38 inch or so CRT, I was just using a 14 inch Sony TV from the 80s with about 9 channel buttons (no remote) one speaker on the side for mono sound (but it had a headphone port for stereo) had RF and SCART but I didn't consider HD a worthwhile upgrade to that relic.
