    Yep, over here some people throw the "brown" boards in the shred pile but I'm selling mine to my local yard for .20 a lb.
    TV,VCR,Stereo,Monitor etc all seem to have brown circuit boards.
    Computer, server, satellite all seem to have the higher grade boards worth more money.

    Not all TV's are created equally! Those flat screens can be worth it, as can some projection ones. Though yea..the majority are just a pita and a good way of making your bones in this business. After the first several hundred you'll never want to see another tube again..lol.
