A 5100 (which I JUST got ahold of last week)...woulda looked just ducky there if that cabinet has the extra depth of the Trinitron set (about 4 more inches deep). It also would have had to change the DC plug. I'm not at home right now, but first thing I noticed is it doesn't use the old style 4-prong Sony plug of the '60s. I know it DOES run on DC, but I forget what it did for DC power. The AC is just a two prong cord.

I'm actually DOWN one of those 4-prong Sony power cords (the regular AC one)...because I got a Sony 301 that didn't have the cord. I share TWO cords between FOUR Sony sets (of which one doesn't run yet anyway). 301,303,305 (and the 700U I can't seem to get going) all use that cord :-(
