Sure, LCD TVs come in boxes that have padding. So did CRT TVs. The padding was probably a lower percentage of the volume, because they were honkin' great cube

The padding was probably a lower percentage of the volume, because they were honkin' great cubes to start with, but don't try to pretend that LCDs in boxes come to the same size as (or even remotely comparable to) equivalent-viewing-size CRTs in boxes.
