Warning: Working inside a CRT can be dangerous. Don't do it unless you know how to be safe.
Back in the mid to late 70s when personal computers were just coming out, there was no such thing as a "computer monitor" yet. Many machines at the time used composite video for their display, and the only monitors an end user might be able to get that was high enough resolution to clearly display text were security camera (CCTV) monitors. This is one such example of a monitor that might have been usd back in the day with an Apple 1 or Apple ][. It was left for dead but can I rescue it?
