Hardly a single bit of science in the past 100 years was not touched or
enabled by the CRT. Our local PBS has produced a program of the history
of Tektronix, it airs Monday:

I
am sure several of us have some of these boat anchors. I am the proud
owner of a 7104, 1GHz scope.
Sure, they got into computer
graphics with the 4000 series terminals, and the tek protocol for vector
graphics became kind of a standard.
Enjoy,
Randy
