I realized I have 6 G90s here right now, 2 more coming in. What do you call it when you stack 6 G90s? Something to do with SEX, I think...... Mr. Green

You're right, Curt! If it was the double-stack and triple-stack, then it would indeed be the sextuple stack! Laughing

Okay

We used to visit the Electrohome factory in Kitchener from time to time; they had some 30x30 test rooms with high ceilings to experiment in. We were there in 1990 when their best projector was the 4500; we walked into one room and they had stacked four 4500s in search of max light output. They had tried six, but the diminishing return meant no visible improvement beyond four.

Perhaps such a stack would be called a G-string? Shocked

(4) 4500s -- jeez, a person could build that stack for almost free nowadays! The problem would be spending an hour touching up convergence every time you fired them up!

No, I was just kidding, but I have bought about 8 since Christmas. No idea where they all came from, thought I got shafted on one of them, but 4 months after I paid for it, I finally received it. Minty tubes, but it's the one that has the orange 60 code, so that goes on the bench tomorrow.

Good thing I stocked up on green LUGs when I had the chance, they are all being used up pretty quickly, as the sales have been good for these. HEck, after listing a new green tubed G90 on eBay for about 6 months, even that has not one, but two bids currently on it, go figure.

Well, my only concern is that the high bidder emailed me, and wants me to send it via USPS to avoid importation taxes to China. Yep, that will work out swell! Smile
