Why they all sit on 2 chairs?
Beside that my LANs Parties looks right the same.
I am guessing to sit higher? or to get high? 🤔
Keep in mind that each of those CRTs used between 100 to 150 watts (some as much as 200 Watts!) of power... so a room full of computers could easily consume 3000 Watts just for the displays.
Have a guess to what happens when you hit ~3680 watts of total power consumption.
