Hello Noisebridge.

We, the NGALAC/Maker Faire 2018 team, are looking for a CRT to use for the
NGALAC, the "retro" arcade cabinet we're building for the Noisebridge Booth
at Maker Faire. (There will be a more detailed announcement about this
project soon, but we are looking for help.)

Currently, We're looking for a 19" to 25" CRT with VGA in and a curved, not
flat, screen. If anyone has recommendations on where to get a good monitor
to install in the cabinet, please let us know.

I called "Weird Stuff" in Sunnyvale, and they said they didn't have any.
I've also been looking on ebay and craigslist. Some Ebay sellers have large
Sony PVM monitors, but they tend to be out of our budget range, especially
once including shipping.

Today I got a Panasonic CT-32L8G from Craigslist, for us to hopefully start
development with.
Photos of it are at https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/NGALAC#Parts_Gathering

It has component , s-video, and composite video inputs and seems like a
good start for our development, but it may be too large for the final
cabinet. It is now at Noisebridge.

So if anyone has leads, please let us know.
