We just put a mini tv/vcr combo and plugged it into the lighter. I can’t remember what I watched on it.
Oh that’s right nothing because I got car sick. I couldn’t watch/read anything in the car. got into Star Wars audio books that way.

The only thing I ever watched on Laserdisc was The Terminator which felt appropriately futuristic

trying to decide how much effort it would be to photoshop the vcr onto galadriel’s head and make a “i have passed the test, and i shall (remain) (tv)” image, and came to the conclusion that the answer was “too much”

Sony LV-1901 - 1975
Photos from a current FB Market listing in Shreveport, LA for the now-reduced price of 200 Smackers. If only I had a truck and a big house.
Maybe the first widely available consumer vcr? 19" color screen, two tuners, timer, dual headphone output, dedicated camera input jack.

I’ve now learned things I didn’t want to know about the Divers 2000
(I suspect they’re wrong about it using VGA, given the Dreamcast just has terrifyingly clean Composite output even with cheap cables, and the middling VGA box compatibility was almost certainly not worth the trade)

it wouldn’t be VGA because the Dreamcast has no way to automatically switch between 15 and 31 kHz modes (VGA boxes have a physical switch on them to allow for this)
now, since the DC supports RGB and it’s probably going straight into the tube’s circuitry, it could very well be wired for that

i received a message from my brother the other day:
and so, word being bond, I decided to add another mid aughties design classic to the stable:
A $40 (okay $120 w/ shipping & tax) 30-inch Apple Cinema HD Display. My graphics card has two dual link dvi ports, but unexpectedly and unmentioned in the auction, Goodwill also threw in an Apple dual-link dvi → mini displayport adapter. Solid bonus, thanks guys.

Before I got my actual new monitor, I was pricing those out. Always loved the way they looked.
