I'm quite happy to be the new caretaker of a CT-100 even with a bad CRT. Yes, it's all beat up, but it will (someday) be refinished to become a decent "display only" piece for our museum. I know I'd never own one of the $10,000 ones, or even if they came down to half that. But I got this one at a "couldn't pass it up" price. And I hear that it may even be the lowest serial number CTC-2 known, to boot!
