[OT] NOT Low cost 'Picture in Picture'...

[Nic Blinston <ukha@xxxxxxx>]

Does anyone else remember seeing a multi-tube TV in the mid-late 70s?
I saw it in Harrods; someting like a 26" colour set, with four small <= BR> (maybe 5"?) black & white tubes arranged below the main screen. Th= e
idea was you could preview the other channels and switch one to the
main screen at will. Of course, this was before we even had 4
channels, and I suspect just about the time VHS & Betamax were being launched in the UK.

I suspect the practical problem with PIP is the irritation it would
cause SWMBO popping up in just the wrong place at just the wrong
time. Almost as bad as those damned onscreen graphics so prevalent
nowadays... http://www.logofreetv= .org.uk/
