Space is not a problem for me. Unless i end up with a couple hundred of these. I usually don't bother with these. I passed up a silver 27" the other day. looked like something from around 2000. these black sets i have will most likely end up harvested for parts, etc. 89,-90 is usually my cutoff date. I do have a couple around 92 or something like that. Usually i don't pass 90 unless its a floor model.

On a similar note, I bet CRT monitors will be worth some money in another 10 years. I finally had to get rid of the 19" Toshiba monitor I had because the picture tube was toast. It was in almost constant use for about 12 years.

I keep a Viewsonic P225F around just in case I need a CRT monitor

And because if you look up the model, around 2004 these things were worth their weight in gold. RGB inputs on the back, and a heavy sonofabitch as well.

Well, think back to the 1970's when early 60's (black*) plastic AA5 radios were as common as weeds. "Keep or toss BPRs?"

*any color, really. maybe "Beige"

I used to have a bunch of those Viewsonics and Sony Trinitron monitors. I usually kept the 19" and 21" monitors. Used to use them in Mame cabinets.
