Vectrex rocks. I've got a pretty decent Vectrex collection, including a lot of the modern releases (Protector is plain awesome).

No it's not a pineapple, its some kind of bonsai palm tree. And no I am not married. I just like to keep things clean.
Nice job on the matching white; that's the way retro grear should be.

Thanks, all of it was free from the local thrift store, I had a nice 866 in a black case with a black CRT Flat. Just did not give me that retro feel.

Wait till it spreads to other rooms. 🤣
Yeah i know, i have a ` little` room here where is more stuff in there..
And there is some stuff in the bed room..
Over a few months i go to moved to a new living, me and my girl bought a house instead of renting it.
Then i have the loft for my own and can store all of my computer equipment there.. I make some nice tables there so i can put my vintage computers there.. I make then also a place to solder and desolder things i need to fix.. 😊

I like it when people take the extra step to adopt a matching white LCD to their collection.

That screen is only for testing purpose.. It have some faults in it.. But do its job for testing only.
