I don’t mean BETTER. That’s a different conversation. I mean cooler.
An old CRT display was literally a small scale particle accelerator, firing angry electron beams at light speed towards the viewers, bent by an electromagnet that alternates at an ultra high frequency, stopped by a rounded rectangle of glowing phosphors.
If a CRT goes bad it can actually make people sick.
That’s just. Conceptually a lot COOLER than a modern LED panel, which really is just a bajillion very tiny lightbulbs.
I’ve got a house built in the 70s and a new Volvo wagon won’t fit lengthwise in it without gutting the garage.
Meanwhile my GTI can fit in front of my workbench with almost six feet to spare.
Oh, good point, hadn’t thought about the changes to garages over time. Hmm.
