retro is in so I wonder if there'd be a market for putting modern screens in vintage tellies?
Not looked but I bet someone is already doing it.
You might struggle to find a flat screen TV small enough to squeeze into the largest of vintage tellies. Laptop screen on one would make a pretty funky desktop computer though.
Size would not be a problem: the largest domestic CRT screen was about 23", however the aspect ratio was 4:3 (to match that of film), whereas for flat-screen TVs the aspect ratio is 16:9.
So you would have either a teeny-tiny 'letterbox' picture or have everything on the periphery chopped off. In a cabinet the depth of a fridge. I like having the telly wall-mounted, frees up floor space for other crap.Quote:
