Sounds great! Iโ€™ll gladly pay $200usd for it.

I skimmed the article and didnโ€™t see any mention of price, but I expect it to be 10x what Iโ€™m willing to spend on a display.

Also if itโ€™s a smart tv Iโ€™m no longer interested at all.

All tha are smart tvs these days, just never connect it to wifi and use external devices like an HTPC.
This. I donโ€™t get why most commenters whinge about smart TV capabilities, when you donโ€™t have to actually use that feature.
Because it run on a computer that wonโ€™t last as long as a normal tv. If the computer degrade, your experience suffer.

Tbf if its booting from ROM and doing the same job its not going to degrade.

Graphics cards from 20 years ago will still play 20 year old games just fine, its not like that computers job is gonna change anytime soon.
