Back in college I ended up rooming with a bunch of unix neck beards and we used a vt320 as our "house control system." It controlled a rack in the basement hooked up to sound systems, tv remote controls for the living room entertainment systems which included a 70in crt monitor that played movie rips from network storage. Fun times.
- anovikov 6mo ago70in CRT monitor?? Wasn't 43in Trinitron largest CRT ever created?
- raffraffraff 6mo agoYep. Either projector or rear projector or didn't happen. I think 70 was pretty big for a rear projection unit.
- somat 6mo agoProbably a crt projection tv.
- drzaiusx11 6mo agoIt was a few decades ago so I'm probably misremembering the diagonal dimensions entirely. I recall it taking 3 large people to even lift it, and it was HUGE by all CRT standards I've seen since. It had glass so not a projection. It had come from the University where random computer shit got thrown before "recycling" (students usually grabbed it before it got anywhere though) I apologize for my very faulting memory, likely was just the 45" Sony, otherwise it was a one off from the SGI labs.
