Hm. You're certain? I have this disembodied memory
of seeing a box in my
parents' shed in the early '80s, with an implosion hazard warning
emblazoned on. I'm fairly sure it was the box for their old TRS-80 Model
III, but it is possible it belonged to their Zenith TV they'd just bought.
Maybe it was just a bozo-warning.
Yes, mostly. Sure, whacking the side of any CRT is foolish and will spread
bits of glass all over the place, but so will whacking a glass jug of
apple cider.
Whacking an oldie CRT like a 10BP4 - umm, just do not do it.
