Love 'em but they're troublesome. The chassis on these was cooped up in that box and would overheat. I think some collectors managed to rig up a small fan to help cool it down.
The really scary version of the Predicta was the model that stood the box on end with the CRT on top. I've only seen one in person, and couldn't help but think what a hazardous arrangement it was. |
