That thread wasn't hard to find. A google search of "GDM-FW900" shows it on the first page. It seems like you're the only one raving about these monitors. Unless you count the amazon page from over a decade ago...

[xeno]Julios wrote:those are probably the finest CRTs ever produced. They're studio quality and when calibrated they look stunning. Calibrating them is no walk in the park, and it's taken me the better part of a year to learn how to do it.

They're also extremely rare and highly sought by gamers and people who enjoy good picture quality. I believe one recently sold for about $2000, although I think that was new in the box.

They have been used in medical applications, but they had a strong niche in movie production work, and were in use up until very recently in many studios.

In that photo, only three belong to me (of which only two are in working condition). The fourth is a buddy's who recently purchased one and drove it over for me to calibrate.
lol @ 1999 Quake 3 mentality.
