Have you ever get nostalgic feeling of playing old games, but people around you are annoyed by it. For example, put a retro computer inside another person room.

CRT flicker is highly annoying and stressing, especially when it comes from the side of the sight range.
For this reason in the past I often have left with some polite excuse, if somebody wanted to show me his Amiga (probably the most flicker-intensive computer ever made) and this took more than the few minutes I can bear.

Sometimes I get the feeling that the potato is near the Excel spreadsheet. For example, it didn't make sense until I played the record backwards.
