No, I used to have a pair before I stupidly sold them, not sure why you would assume that they would be Steve's.

Agree. The story of the emporer's clothes comes to mind here (not Tan's!). You can expect to be called a peasant by owners of said TVs though, as I found when I dared to question the wisdom of spending £££s on such a device when it seems unless you sit directly in front of it you can't see the picture!

Those curved TVs are hilarious. You must have been seriously daft to buy one of those.

Records are making a comeback. Not sure the technology to play them is as good as it was, though.

Virtual Reality and 3D cinema/tv.
Apart from initial interest and curiosity they'll both soon be of no use or interest
