Comment on How to Bias a CRT After Installation by Zamp

In reply to jdgueydan.

This is why I was sad to see VFD table top games get replaced with LCDs. Even when they try to simulate the look of VFD with an LCD, it does not at all look the same. All of the subtle characteristics of the VFD just isn't there. The faint red glow of the filament wires, the slight halo to a glowing VFD segment among other things just isn't there. And the VFD games often looked and played amazing, like looking at an arcade monitor and the gameplay was good enough that you stop noticing the "jerky" movements (limitation of segmented displays) of the action.
