But that likely fooled NO ONE, because of the Trinitron's distinctive shape...Seems like I remember seeing a Trinitron cobbled into a contemporary RCA/Zenith/Moto console... They'd done a REASONABLE job, but anybody who knew anything about TVs KNEW what it was.. Trinitrons MUST have been VERY stable, too, because anytime they wanted/had to show a TV operating on TV, it most likely was a Trinitron.
