Might be good to go into some detail about the distinction between Vector and Raster video hardware. Early Vector displays were expensive and did not catch on - see the Vectrex for example (though I do not know if this is truly Vector hardware, since it used a regular TV). Also good would be some more clarification on the fact that modern displays are predominantly raster (with pixels), even though some software uses vector techniques (Illustrator, any SVG editor, etc.) I am no expert on the subject though, so it may be best left to someone with more knowledge. -- Wapcaplet
