    I’ve been without a working CRT for far too long, it’s time! Of course the PC I’ll connect to is currently running an IDE spinning rust disk with an OS installed from floppy disk, because I’m a glutton for punishment stickler for authenticity :D

    Next mission is to find a monitor for C64 duties (because oh my god do LCDs destroy the output from one of those no matter what you try and feed it through!)
