They also have the CRT slightly inclined downward, so that you're less likely to get a reflection off the screen from a window. They of course refered to any such reflection as "glare," which is the word people use for all bad things associated with light.

It was a mighty strange marketing campaign. However, there seems to have been a bit of hype at the time that watching TV could somehow be bad for your eyes. The usual paranoid overprotective types would pay extra for a green-tinted Hoffman!

What they didn't seem to understand is that watching TV is bad for your brain! Eyes? ... not so much.
