Hi Nino, interesting video. I wonder, does this monitor support the laptop's resolution perfectly? Have you tried something older, like a 386 with a VGA? Then I ask you, did you change all the capacitors at random or did you know more or less what they did? I ask you why I have a problem with my DM 602, which works but does not display the upper half of the first line of the screen. I would like to understand if there is some modus operandi or if I have to search in the dark, thanks.
Pardon my ignorance: what is a DM 602? And - 386! That you must reopen this wound, *sigh* 😆 Happy you like it! And to be frank: no, no plan, totally in the dark. I was changing all capacitors on the board exactly behind the screen - and "most" others, judging that those at the end of CRT most likely control the ray, and the others "some other stuff". Of your "DM 602" is/has a screen, then maybe either the screen needs calibration / positioning of the image, or a cable is not fully attached (had that on a laptop: and if you press a specific place, the line appeared; my solution was to squeeze a matchstick under the bezel "to forever press that place"). I will now try to run it with a different machine…

My rant, this is for young users of CRT monitors, not you Nino. Young people with nostalgia illness, particularly those who never used any of this technology, are sick… CRTs suck. They always sucked. First off the image on screen is distorted no matter what you do, you just have to try to make the distortion as even as possible. Next the colors are off and calibration took way too much time. Also, your white point was BLUE. This was particularly frustrating if you worked in graphics, print media, or photography. They were heavy and awkward. To this day I have back problems from lifting 21” CRT Monitors. The biggest part in the CRT monitor IS the CRT. The cathode ray tube is a consumable, meant to be replaced after time and the more they are used the worse they look. You young people have no idea how great it was to get genuine flat screen CRTs and how great it was to get LCDs a few years later. This whole “I game on a CRT because that was what the game was designed for” is cork sniffery or the most hard R kind The Emperor wears no clothes.
That is a BRILLIANT rant! 😄 I … like them. BECAUSE they are crappy. 😆 You know what? In your honor, I will make a video on how to use a Fallout-like map on a modern iPhone, WITH crappy graphics!
