You want to sell WHAT?Author: jawapro

At work, we´ve pretty much finished replacing all our old CRT monitors with flatscreens. So we have had CRTs comming out our ears. A while ago they sold a heap (before I came) but now there are heaps again - so we sent out another email yesterday offering "$10 for 15" CRT screens and $20 for 17" CRT screens". Not a bad price if you want one.
Anyway - we got one or two replies from people saying they´d take one. But the most replies were from people asking what on earth a CRT is.
And then we had to work out how you´d explain to someone who isnt techy at all - what you meant by a CRT.
The only sort of ways to describe it we could think of were things like
- The old sort
- The chunky ones
- The fat ones
- Not flat-screens
So in the end my boss sent out a clarrification saying "P.S. A CRT is the heavy conventional (old) style monitor - Not a flat screen.
P.P.S. It stands for Cathode Ray Tube."
I just thought it was funny how many people didnt know what a CRT was.
^ For those that dont know - THAT´s a CRT style Monitor.
