Here's some functional art: Someone's reissued the old Predicta TVs!

Fuckin' schweet.

Want at least three of them.

Would never mistake you as one with taste, fruitnutt.

why the hell would you want one of these? They don't look that good and I didn't get to deep into the website (gallery only) but do they work? Whats the point of an old tv like this that doesn't work?

They work. It's not HD (duh).

Again, it's functional art. It's not the latest and greatest in fucking television.

I like it. I just wish instead of usig the tubes they were using LCD displays. Then it would be the ultimate. I like the throwback styling, and you could even leave it look like a tube but not. Who knows maybe they will do that in the future.

Exactly.

Of coarse, was at best buy the other day and they have that LED flatty that is maybe 1/2" thick. I've hung way way thicker picture frames!

I know it's not HD, but damn. I mean, I really have a thing for my 52" LCD. Much bigger picture and not so........OLD

But, to each his own. If you like it, dude, then by all means, rock it out.
