    do folks do pc builds inside of old CRT cases? that seems like a niche that should exist.

        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
