Title: Decoration for The Shed??
Post by: Muerto on October 10, 2012, 05:58:17 PM

Learning from earlier experiences, i let the majority decide this time...
I just got my fingers in this old B/W 21" TV, so now is the question... keep it as it is, or turn it into a monitor...:

That might be a bit too old to be useful as a monitor and the CRT looks like a really old fashioned rounded one. Did any games use that style? Maybe Computer Space or early Pong but I don't think they were 21"?

Yup, too old for using as monitor plus I think that would really be a pity. And it's a B&O, although I have to say they didn't have their trademark tight design yet then....

I have a spare tube soon if you want....
