You made me go look ;-)

The 32V2 is 110 lbs. I got one from a friend's estate and got rid of it
because of the weight alone.

The Heath DX100 is 100 lbs, so I can understand a slipped disc!

My Viking Ranger weighed 45 lbs. I thought that was plenty for one small box
- even when I was a kid!

They didn't call 'em "boat anchors" for no reason. 

Now I give out with an "OOF!" when I lift the KPA500 which weighs about half
of what my Ranger did.

Not only do parts get smaller as we get older, the rigs get heavier.

The DX-100 weighed enough to give my Dad (K3QDC, SK) his first slipped disk!
He brought it home on approval but decided not to keep it. I don't recall
whether the return was before or after the surgery.
