Haha yes that might have happened. But now it is going to be in livingroom for everyone to see when before it was somewhere laying and getting dusty. And propably for many many years already. :)

Indeed. It is a cool concept, despite the loss. Woulda been slightly more cool if you could have found a way to keep the tubes/monitor and light them up when the PC turns on.

Well the monitor wouldn't be so easy but the tubes could just have been directly put to psu. Those tubes in this oscilloscope just weren't bright enough to look cool enough :) They had like two 1mm x 1mm red spots so.. But tubes would have been possible, we thought that. But crt had so weird connector and no one was sure what information is needed to push in from which pin. Cool, but atleast we couldn't do it.

Man, this build rocks! You could have bought directly heated tubes (diodes) they look AWESOME! But, they're not cheap..

Nice project, looking forward to your next one ;)

You know what, this build only cost 260 euros to make. I think that is pretty low :) But it is very fast for a web surfing machine. I just thought to tell you the price if you are interested. :)

Well actually it didn't take so long :) I finished it in a week, but of course stuff that you like to do goes fast. You can always find time for stuff like this :D I should have read to a swedish test but it was much more fun to do this :D And thanks!

Heh, here might just be the screen for the pc. If we find some good screen that fits in there it'll propably be it. And with flatscreen you can install sound system in it too :D

[Kind of an update]

It has finally been taken to use :) My dad picked it up this christmas and is now watchim tv with it. It is hooked up to a tv now and propably in future too. Only problem is that now when i havent been plugging it in to the tv and my dad did it alone, the image misses about an inch from left and up. So that needs to be corrected. I am not any Ubuntu expert so I couldnt help him trough phone on the fly :) Will add some new pictures in the coming days (or weeks)

Nice build! What would have been ultra cool is having a terminal display on the CRT, and maybe some nixie tubes.
