Def not my cup of tea… It looks awful. But if they’re happy with it, that’s all that matters I suppose.

It is definitely rough. But given these things were from the age of analog television, and therefore would fail to receive and show digital, HD, content, I applaud the reuse of what would otherwise be a paperweight/landfill fodder.
