not sure what you mean tho.. the slew is slower yes, resulting in rounded
corners and stuff, but the main problem is the blanking, the beams not
turning on and off quick enough, making the beggining/end of vectors weird..

well, tried what? AFAIK i'm the only one to have done it so far :) I'm still
using my vectrex on my test rig to this day, its fine for troubleshooting,
its also playable, but writing, and small vectors get weird because the beam
isn't turned on/off quick enough. playable... but not too good :) but who
cares? :)
