It looks brand new. What's the story here?

Ya if it was old it'd be piss yellow from sun damage and way dirtier. With a few bullet holes if it was left outside in some places.

It was outside my dad's house - It turns out he found it with some old tech in his house and pit it out there hoping someone would take it.

I took it the next time I came.

EDIT: he says it was out there 2 weeks

Some of those monitors are now worth quite a bit.

Old Hyama 4:3 ratio 560p 30hz. Literally e-waste.

It's iiyama, looks to be in great condition. Some sell for hundreds of pounds:

The resolution is not that simple.

Thought it was a flat panel from that era, if it's a high quality CRT yeah those can be pricey due to low input lag and high refresh rate.

[–] ABCDE@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Oh, you're likely right then. I assumed it was a big CRT.

Donate it to a library, they'll probably be ecstatic to have such advanced technology.
