Is it ok if we post our crt pics here?

this is an old sanyo we had languishing in a closet, the best it can do is composite but I think it looks alright. Ignore the socks.

this might be a good place to ask

what would be a good way to get a modern laptop (lenovo thinkpad carbon) with just hdmi out to work on a crt? the inputs available are component, composite, and rf. would something like a retrotink get me there? is there a better way to run gamecube/wii games, besides a gamecube/wii?

I don't have any experience with this but I think you will need a dac, digital analog converter for something like this. or if you just want to do this for shits and giggles you can buy a cheap hdmi to component converter on amazon. ymmv.

another crt pic, because I like it.
