I have that little pink Sharp 3" color set in my watched list on ebay......but $200 between BIN and shipping is deffinately too rich for me for now.
There is a little pink Magnavox Shadow I'm gonna try and add to my little collection of the two other shadows, but it has gathered a bidder since I started this thread.
Love that pic of the three 42A sets. That is deffinately the little pink one I found about a month ago. Runs REALLY good, but have to admit to thinking there was a geometry problem with it and at least took the back off to clean it up. Turns out this was about the time I really became aware of the so-so linearity of these. I got it dialed in pretty good, but I guess there is only so much you can do with such an odd crt angle. You had a pic in the other thread of a crosshatch on one of these....and it pretty much matched what I have on both the 10A and 42A.
An XL-100 would actually be a GIGANTIC set in "my" collection. Biggest thing I have is the little 12" GE I got at the swap meet a few weeks ago. It's not even really in the display shelves because it would DWARF all the little micros. It lives in the kitchen, on a counter being a daily driver. Even the Sony S8-301 was a bit big for the display shelves...so it has it's own place in the front room. It's a bit fussy, so it only sees action if I wanna sit there and babysit it while watching it.
LOL @ the pic of an abysinian watching a little red 10A. My cats would just casually look at the sets...but I think the horizontal output squeel bugged 'em. They would usually run off if you actually set the TV in front of 'em. You can see in my avatar that the Sony AIBO robots LOVE to watch TV....but sadly, it's just the frame flicker that just draws their attention. I can keep that robot equally entertained by turning on a ceiling fan :P
