Yeah I lied; so what is the truth?

Speaking of Trinitrons, I had a Sony GDM FW900 24 inch CRT monitor way back in the day:



It weighed about 100 lbs and increased the temperature of my room by about 15 degrees but it had amazing colors and made games look so drat beautiful. Also 2304 x 1440 resolution :dong:

I had a dell model exactly like this and I can attest to the fact that these fuckers weigh more than my current refrigerator. Favorite story about it was I was under my desk messing with cabling and proceeded to shift the weight on the desk by accident and it proceeded to land about 1/8th of an inch from my head... I should be dead...and the fucker still worked.

As for content



The Sony Mavica line of Digital cameras... They took loving floppy disks and shoot at about 140x210 resolution and fit around 10 photos per disk and it took about 30 seconds to a minute to save a photo after you took it.
