Damn amazing !!!

Especially the fact that he used a Vectrex as monitor and improved the deflection hardware so it had enough speed to handle Asteroids

So, we can use Vextrexes as test monitors after all

Wow...
Very well documented Site. Great Idea, especially the real PCB on the Rear under Plexi.

Pman (on UKVAC) did some experiments years ago with using a vectrex monitor as part of a test rig and I think it was technically possible but just easier to use a real monitor or scope

Nice idea, the pcb behind the plexi is awesome. Only the dust on the pcb look not so good dishwasher
