yes, for classic computers, as well as for nominally headless boxes that occasionally need a local display

no for daily use

actually set up my risc-v box using VGA because I couldn�t be bothered to dig out one of many DVI cables I have

also the NEC MultiSync LCD1990SX is one of the best monitors for retro stuff, syncs to almost anything and can give a really sharp display with a 1:1 centered image up to 1280�1024

considered getting one of the 20in models (2090UX or whatever) since some hardware like my SGIs can handle 1600�1200

heck, with an ECL to RS-170 adapter, my Sun-3/60 could drive that in monochrome

I have never seen a smart board being used, ever

at this point i'm starting to believe they were a non-functional hoax product

I did some consulting at NEC America in the mid-late 1990s; theirs was the first office I�d seen with Aaron chairs, and they actually used a smart board (NEC of course) during meetings

BNC monitor cabling is way cooler than VGA

oh your video can go over that single cable with little wires in it?

that�s cute, mine�s so powerful it needs honkin thick metal tubes

I have a couple of nice 21in SGI Trinitron monitors with 13W3 on the back
