I got a flatscreen! What to do with CRT monitor?
« on: June 07, 2015, 10:15:01 AM »
My in-laws have passed on a flat screen TV. It has SCART, VGA and HDMI connectors so I thought I'd test it with my A1200. The result is a great picture even up to Super Hi-Res-laced. Shapeshifter and PC-Task all run flicker free. I'm really pleased. (If anyone's bothered, it's a Tesco Tecknika 19".)

The questions is: What to do with my Phillips CM-8833 Mk2. Should I keep it for 'authenticity' or sell it? The power switch takes a few presses to turn on/off (I think the spring has gone) but other than that it's fine.

Is there a market for this?
A1200 in DIY Tower. 3.2 ROMs (softkicking 3.2.3), OS 3.2.3, CF card, CD RW and IDE to SD adapter running off the internal IDE port (using the A4000 4-port IDE adapter from Amigakit), Pistorm 32 lite with Pi4/2GB/Emu68 or Blizzard 1230-IV, with 32MB 60ns RAM and 50MHz 68882 FPU.
