Thanks for letting me know my shortcomings in style. A bit tactless aren't you?
[EDIT]: How about this "Niceguy", maybe next time rather than being pompous how about you actually give an option that could possibly fit my situation and no the little rolling cart isn't it, nor is some high priced piece. If you don't have something good to say you might want to keep it to yourself next time.
you are welcome
flyingpatricio,
I am not that type of person. Any suggestion would be better than the POS you have picked as a solution. As my mother would say "all your taste is in your mouth".
I will admit that 27¢ per day for the last eight years is an excessive amount to pay for the enjoyment of an obsolete television (never sign up for "Save the Children" it is a dollar a day). I am sure that one day you will be able to amotise this piece.
Poor taste, cheap, and resentful. How is that for a start towards shortcomings.
Sorry that I seem to have had a hand in starting this--
I was never turning up my nose at the 1950's stereo cabinet on the grounds that it's "cheap", but because it's a poor solution to the problem of accommodating a modern TV & components. Three fruit crates would be cheaper still, but better.
I guess I was especially blunt about stating my dislike because this choice of "TV stand" seems mired in nostalgia.
Instead of considering the requirements of a contemporary TV and coming up with the best solution your budget will allow, you're aping some 1950's notion of an appropriate splay-leg wood grain TV throne.
I called the useless electronics inside "moldy" not because I have an abhorrence of mold & dirt, but because it's a big pretty wood-grained box full of unused, moldering crap that serves only to displace genuinely useful crap.
EDIT: I should have more simply stated that the fundamental error is a desire to marry an "MCM TV stand" with an MM TV-- the first bears little relation to the second.
