You too can do KILLER vectors at 15khz!!

That's a high quality image, but nothing like a Vector monitor. 

But I see that you have maximized the abilities of a arcade raster monitor.  Is 16.5 the absolute highest resolution you could push your monitor to Ummon?  I wonder if a few other monitors out there are capable of slightly more?  Or how it would look interlaced, but at higher resolutions?

Resistance is futile. And so is trying to emulate a vector.

I don't know that I would go THAT far.  Some of the newer technologies are capable of some pretty bright images, and they are already doing it above the resolution associated with the coarse dot-pitch of the monitors that were used (remember, we are talking about color vector, not mono).

I'd like to see one of those LED backlit LCD panels doing vector emulation.  I'll bet it's a real treat.

When people say that it doesn't look that impressive....have we forgot that we are looking at the effect through different monitors?

Getting back, the new Sony 120hz LCD's with super white are pretty dang bright.    So much so, that at times I get a brightness that feels like I am looking into the sun.   Never tried vector graphics, but I suspect it might have positive results.   I know this much, I had to turn down my HDTV's brightness.

No, it would seem that it EXACTLY what we are talking about ... so far, there really aren't any options that compare to a true vector monitor, although I agree with RandyT that some of the newer stuff coming may be much nicer that we have seen before.
