It's set-ups like this that give CRT a bad name.
I don't know what's worse, the primered case or the fact that the cooling vents over the power supplies have been carpeted over. Someone please rescue this machine. Laughing

Can't tell from the pic if he has ventilation. He could have some pretty good draw going on through the top, which would be OK.
The SADDEST thing is that he's probably going to go digital once the 'Quee is sold. THAT I would definately entirely cover with carpet. Razz
Nice low price tho. I don't get his adendum at the bottom concerning the road case and shipping costs. A road case weighs more than a quality built wooden crate??? Confused

Guess he's a carpet lover. I can relate to that. I've layed lot's of carpet and layed on top of lot's of carpet. Wink I've even drooled on carpet, occasionally sleeping on it. Many times infront of the projector, never ON the projector though. Mr. Green

I've carpeted wood before too. Hard wood. Laughing

I drooled on my projector once... now that it's on the ceiling, I'm the most likely recipient.... I get drooled on a lot.
