Clearly this is the correct suggestion.
Could even tie it in with the story.
"Former 007 agent unhappy with the way the world goes, changes sides and becomes supervillain.
He knows everything 007 knows, because he's been one!"
Practically writes itself.
I used to own a ilyama crt, it died a honorable death around 2000-ish while i was playing Dark Age Of Camelot. RIP my friend, i will always remember your 18kg of glass and plastic fondly.
