I’m old enough to remember when this was peak entertainment technology.
See, now that's just the TV stand for the newer TV on top!
But seriously, why the fake drawers in these? The drawer handles even rotated, but you'd just be pulling against the wood.
I remember back in the 90s I found a cabinet just like that, but without the TV. Since I was broke back then, I took it back to my place and used it as a computer desk.
That's eerily similar to what I grew up with. Like: "are you my sibling, and is that actually my old house"-level similar.
Edit:nm - we had wood floors, and the fan on the right was white.
Peak would've been a grey Zapper.
My grandparents had one very much like this. It was so much fancier than ours. It even had a remote!
Wow, old memory unlocked, we had that exact tv (or maybe another model that looked very similar). It was the good TV for a long time but never made it to be the less good TV in the basement because, well look at it, it's a tube TV built into a fucking cabinet, just throw it out.
I remember my parents had a Magnavox wood finish tv console. That fucker weight more then a collapsed star I swear it took 3 people to move it from one corner to another.
Oh man, this reminds me of the Sony Trinitron my family had growing up. We inherited it from my grandparents on my dad's side when I was very young.
My grandpa died before I was old enough to remember him being alive, and my grandma we lost to dementia/Alzheimer's not long after.... So we got their TV.
Worked great for so many years, but somewhere around the 25-30 year mark, the picture had all but lost most of the color and I'm pretty sure that we had a failure in one of the emitters so one of the colors would only sometimes be there. We didn't keep it around after that started happening regularly.
It was like this, a huge cabinet on wheels, and it was flanked by two massive speakers the full height of the unit, and about 10" off each side of the screen.
That TV was home to our NES and SNES consoles for a long time, and eventually our Sega Genesis.
We had a lot of good times sitting on the floor playing games on that thing.
great picture. I'll bet that TV didn't even have one of the old style remotes to change channels
Looks like model used in cs_militia in Counter Strike Source. Or at least reminds me of it
We had a Zenith version of this idea, but it still had the clunky dials for changing channels instead of those fancy buttons.
I remember as a child, and occasional green spot would happen in the lower right of the screen and I would have to go hit it with a hammer until it went away.
