Or worse, knowing you're looking at a satin-faced 16:9 LCD imposing itself behind the old CRT mask. Ick.

I wish your "store" was a chain that had a store in Indianapolis, because I'd buy at least one set from you
I especially am drawn to the B&W consoles of the 1960s, say 1960-1965 era. They seem pretty scarce at the usual places, Craigslist/Goodwill/S. Army/antique malls out here. People probably trashed them as soon as they moved up to a color set. Too bad!
