- I did this several years ago (allowing for cable box)- extended rear projection TV into closet of utility room behind the living room to free up space in a too small room

- When you think about it its a great green idea. Get a tv like that off of craigslist instead of buying new flat screen one and do what they did. You save money and some waste.

- Hmm, fail or win?
  
  I'd say it's a win for ingenuity, but since you have to *go to a different room* to change the channel on your cable box...

  It could also be a massive fail if the person removed studs from a load bearing wall, and then your fake thin screen turns into a house collapsing :)

- Dah! Is good!
  
  My only concern is the door behind the back end of the monitor. Might have to fix that so it opens the other way.
  
  Oh, and then there's the rebuilding when the monitor stops working.

  It's a fail. He destroyed the wall and the use of the other room in a practical way. Besides, the TV he has stuck in the wall is OLD technology and probably has a terrible picture like those types of TVs are notorious for ( Tri-Lens rear projection )
