Perfect for viewing Greek gods and goddesses in action, the latest model from SONY adds the roofline and portico from the famous Greek temple. Available in widescreen format only. Available attachment side curtains for mathematical purists.

The parthenon is designed in its aspect ratio, 1.618. WSTV is close at 1.777 From nature to architecture, it shows up everywhere. [RayfordSteele, Oct 04 2004, last modified Oct 05 2004]
