I'm frankly amazed it wasn't just a rusted mess inside.

I enjoyed watching him work of this monitor. I wish electronics were made that durable today.

I love this guy. I've watched several of his other videos before. He's obviously not an expert, but he does a decent job with what he has.

Very good video. That's when stuff was built to last.
