Who remembers those monster GE projection sets from the mid-to-late '70's that used a 13" TV and some mirrors to produce the picture? I saw one of those at a TV repairman friend's house and the picture wasn't worth a crap. I'm sure the set being 20-25 years old didn't help; but, I've heard that these sets didn't look that great when new.
Or, what about one of those Zenith's from the early '80's that used a motorized drive system in order to lower the screen portion down inside the cabinet when not in use? I actually had one of those where the mechanism had failed and the screen was always in the "up" position. Also, the green CRT had a busted neck; but, the set otherwise worked. I ended up junking it.
