Wow, that article brings back some memories.
Around 1968 we used black pantyhose as anti-glare on CRT screens that were set into benchtops. I don't recall any colour artifacts, but it was very effective in breaking up reflections.
In the same general era, my sister-in-law had a blue/pink/green overlay on her B&W tv. I found it disconcerting.
Cheers,
Peter

We were told to convert to color only had to replace a tube; had visions of this being something akin to a small piece of hose pipe.
Later we did upgrade, and got the latest model complete with a remote control - attached to the TV by a wire. That was really innovative as if you lost the remote could follow the wire back from the TV - why don't they do that these days?

We got one of those. Ours was just a channel changer. You still had to turn the TV off and on at the TV.

I remember wanting one of those. But hey, I was a kid, what did I know.
I do remember watching the moon landing on a color TV. Why? I do not know as the camera was black and white.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

On what do you base that? I suspect your alka-lying about it.

Do you have codenames for your builds / versions? I usually don't but could resist naming release 1.0.737.0 "Boeing"

You forgot: 1.0.380.0 "Airbus"
btw... what a nice plane, specially the upper deck (and its bar)

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Yeah - well when it tries to land or take off it will often find an out-of-runway error.
