Toshiba 20A22
Toshiba 20A22 CRT RGB mod
The Toshiba 20A22 is a 20" CRT display that can be easily modified for RGB input. Although it carries the Toshiba name, it was actually manufactured by Orion.
I find this CRT more visually appealing than Toshiba 20A42.

CRT safety
Caution
You can die doing this! So read carefully! CRT TV is not a toy. Do not open a CRT TV. If you don't have any prior knowledge about handling high voltage devices, this guide is not for you. CRT TV contains high enough voltage (20,000+ V) and current to be deadly, even when it is turned off.
