Oh man I LOVE my Sony PVM 8045Q! I’ve been really wanting one of those consumer grade 9” ones, like the KV-9PT60. But they go for quite a bit now!

Hell yes! Those are endgame as far as I can tell. I will admit I also scored one! Where I used to live there was an electronic flea market, which was a genuine treasure trove for people like us. Alas, I have never powered it on. When I moved I wrapped up all my little TVs and stored them away. They are accessible now, but I need to procure the cables and adapters to make them work.

My goal is to make a shelf or some kind of bespoke table to display and use them as I please.

I also got a little Sony Trinitron and it is beautiful.

Also, I am a massive dumbass. My sister used to own one of the last produced Sony Trinitrons. Flatscreen, built in DVD and VCR player. That was the perfect television. I let it go because kid me was an idiot (not as dumb as adult me, unfortunately. damn).
