My COCO is modified for CGA video - which is better resolution than composite and NO flatscreen has CGA input

Translation, you've been caught lying again and that isn't a 50" TV.

You never could bullshit your way out of a wet paper bag.

That is a 15 or 17 inch - 19 at most

The biggest Grundig I can find in 89cm, 35 inch which would be similar to the Sony. Mitsubishu made a 40" but it weighed 750 pounds and the price was up in five figures.

I agree, the Aussie troll is full of BS again. If he's not, then it's easy, he can just take another pic of that TV with a tape measure across the screen. I didn't know M made a 40". I had the first 35" big screen Mitsubishi, cost a couple grand. When it died years later, it was in the era of rear projector HD TV. I evaluated that, the cable company didn't even have HD at the time, I decided to go with a 36" CRT, which by then was maybe $400. Used that until LCD ones came out, came down in price and there was HD on cable.

I believe Mitsubishi was the only company that made a 40 inch CRT tube and it was the biggest they made.. Actually - upon doing some research, they actually made a VERY FEW 61 inch CRTs but they had a very short life and low reliability so were quickly discontinued. I was wrong -Sony also built a 40 inch Trinitron and they built some

43 inchers that never got outside the lab. In order to safely support the vacuum they were HELLISHLY HEAVY!!!

OOPS - my bad. but still not a 50!!!

I scaled it up from theAV plugs - looks like possibly a 40" - 4:3 ratio

The Grundig label scales to roughly 3 inches - and the diagonal measurement of the tube is 12 times the size of the label - or 36 inches. By American sizing that would be a 40 inch - In canada it would have been called a 37 incher, or possibly a 36. Grundig used philips tubes. Philips owned Grundig from 1973 until about 1998.

Its actually much wider than that. oddly wide in the flesh.
