Yep! Display has got some issues with the brightness control, so I need to see about going through its logic board on the back of the yoke.

Really wanna get it working properly so I can play Crossfire and Jump an properly. 😆

The one in the middle is the exact model of television I had, before my brother borrowed it to take to college and during a party it got thrown out of an upper story dorm window in Lubbock, Texas

Oh yeah, it's definitely the perfect chuckable size. 😆

Where's the NSFW tag?!

Look at the knobs of that middle one! Whoooooeeee!!!

All these posts of yours showing off your cool retro tech makes me wanna find a decent little CRT to use for my Sega Genesis and PlayStation 2.

Do it! Find an electronics recycler that does resale and see if they've got something on hand for it.

Just think of how heavy even TVs were in the past.. I actually can’t wait to swipe screens in my vision, while fighting for democracy in a virtual reality of the future.

Does the Jr. have the chiclet keyboard?

tiasinger.bsky.social•15 days ago

Nope, I've got a Cherry IBM compatible unit that's seen better days. To be honest, I have a mini TRS-80 with a built in chiclet keyboard that I cannot STAND, so I'm leary of hunting the OG Jr. keyboard down.
