do folks do pc builds inside of old CRT cases? that seems like a niche that should exist.
You've given me a great idea
babe i’ve given BOTH of us a great idea. i’ve still got my very first big ass CRT. i’d love to give it life again.
bonus points if you reuse the old DVI hookup as a video out. TIL regular-ass DVI can handle 1920x1200 @ 60hz!
I'm a little fresher on the block than you are, we had a CRT when I was little but that thing is long gone for LEDs and OLEDs about a million moves ago.
Will I go scour the web for someone's junk however to breathe life into it again? Fuck yeah that sounds fun
try thrifting if that’s an option near you!
