Your parents were ballers then. The one in the video is the largest one made and 42 inch. And it cost $40000

If it did 1080i, I’m guessing it was a widescreen model. Done in the early 2000’s. I got a 36” trinitron for about $1600 that did 1080i/720p. Heavy as crap, but damn fine picture. Halo looked awesome.
