    Those are commercial TV's, marketed to hotels and institutional accounts. They may be built from sturdier stuff. Or not.

    Are you referring to gold plate on the pins or the board, itself?

    For some reason photobucket doesn't like my phone today. I'll keep working on trying to upload photos when I get the chance
