  I just kind of like it because they're TVs.

As far as I can tell, they serve no purpose to the 'AI' in the game.
They are however neat "FX" and can help you when it comes to deja' vou.
The "have'nt I been here before" question.

Sometimes I use them as targets when I'm just foolin around.
I'l slide and fire at an array of glass screens and determine my 
effective hits percentage.

But in the game, I use them as markers for the most part.

	I shoot 'em out, to serve as markers also, if I'm exploring, and
get caught backtracking.

No, I'm not ashamed to admit it:

I shoot 'em cuz I like to hear the sound of glass breaking :-)
