VECTOR: in case you don't read RGVAC

In RGVAC there's kind-of a neat "warehouse find" article currently.
("MASSIVE warehouse find!!!!")

One of the pictures caught my eye:

Are those all Cinematronics vector monitors on the right hand side? I think
they are, but there's something a little weird about the perspective or
something-- maybe some are farther away than others. (Some look "smaller"
that the rest.)

(and although not vector, this impressed me just by sheer numbers--

)

Oh, this was neat too:

While I'm thinking of it... Was there any rhyme or reason to when
Cinematronics/Vectorbeam/whoever used the external HV units vs. the flyback
circuit on the deflection board? (I just noticed one of my boards is
flyback equipped and I don't remember seeing that before... Maybe in
Spacewars, but not in my Ripoff.)
