For a display, the engineers selected a vector-based CRT, a display tube capable of only drawing lines with a single electron gun, similar to those used in oscilloscopes–as well as Atari games such as Asteroids.
My inner steampunk would love to see more vector-based CRTs in dedicated hardware displays.
