So this is interesting: a reply on the linearity question on Lemon64 suggests this is just reality on an SX-64. The responder said he was even trying to reproduce the effect on an LCD replacement because it’s so much a part of the authentic experience. Hhhhmm.

I did a Kagi image search and, while some model shots look “perfect”, I do see lots of examples that are similar to mine.

Opinions?

I adore Roland’s Ratrace, and I made it my mission to find Dave Collier and chat with him about its development. He was generous with his time, but I’m not sure that he wanted to be interviewed😂

The SX-64 restoration continues. The re-capping of the monitor introduced no failures to fix, so that's a relief.

What has not improved (and I hope has not worsened) is bowing and linearity - especially toward the right side top to bottom.

I'd love any feedback on improving this. Been years since I dug this much into a CRT, so others with more experience truly appreciated! Reshare to others as needed.

🖥️ Oh, the nostalgia! Just what every modern #Postgres user was waiting for: a 2026 #throwback to their misspent youth with Commodore 64 #BASIC. Because nothing says "cutting-edge database management" quite like typing three pages of code for a "SYNTAX ERROR IN 2340" flashback! 🕒👴🏻
