Which market are you referring to ? You actually think SGI started it all -
gimme a break !
Because Singer-Link already had graphics using projection monitors with
resolutions upto 1000x1000 for their military simulators as far back as 1980
- raster not vector. It didn't that many colors yet, about 64, but still.
We designed many of the computing systems for their simulators while at SEL
- even Rediffusion.

Depends on your definition of
"high-res".

Were Barco around then? I seem to recall them a decade or so ago making
displays with very high resolutions for simulation and medical use, but I
don't know at what point they got into that game.
I think 120 Hz refresh is the issue.
20 years ago, SGI.
There probably were others, but SGI "defined" that market.
