Score!
« on: March 06, 2008, 06:01:47 pm »
I was taking some trash out at work today and came across this gutted projector in the dumpster. It seems someone took the chassis out of it. All I could think was ...Score! I have a sit down Star Wars Trilogy Arcade Machine (see pic) and these are the exact same picture tubes that it uses. So, now I have three replacement tubes in case any of the machine's tubes breaks down. I know this is kind of off topic for the BYOAC theme, but I wanted to share my good fortune.

I think just amazed that you have a starwars trilogy arcade machine.  That thing must have cost a mint!

Yes, it did not come cheap.
