Upvoted for beautiful VFD.. Pre-flatscreen technology is still fascinating to me. Sure, flatpanels are effecient and "pretty nice to look at" but they're just not as fun.. I sometimes look at those lovely big VFD dot matrix displays, thinking they look so cool.. but they're so expensive for what is just a small display with low resolution..
