Rescued old CRT I put a lot of work in. Was totally dead when I got it, rescued it to be almost perfect again.

It still has an intermittent horizontal size issue and the power button has some cosmetic wear. But at least the power button works, it used to only work when you would hold it down.

Be sure to enable the audio for some good retro tunes coming from the monitor.

Wow that's awesome man. Glad you added the 'since childhood' part, I was feeling a bit old.

I've fixed up a lot of CRTs, but this one is kinda special, since it goes so well with the MSX system.

Indeed the color pallete, the geometry, its spot on.
