The VCR in the bottom still works great too! I’m a total noob to this as I’ve only ever set up emulators on a regular computer. How difficult is it to set up something like a RetroPi? Or is there a better option?

    Cool. I didn’t want to suggest a disassembly if someone didn’t realize that wire likely coming out of the top of the tube wasn’t there to be a convenient handle.

    CRTs are one of the few electrical devices that scare me, actually. It’s not that bad, but I choose to maintain a healthy level of fear in that regard.

      That’s probably a good idea! I’ve heard of people getting electrocuted pretty badly from these old CRTs!
