There is no conventional resolution to vector displays (though monitors have limitations).
Reminds me at one point in time I owned a Vectrex,
which had much cleaner lines than any other console,
even much better than my later, much more expensive Amiga
or (early) PCs.

Super brilliant too: the world of PSX Bowling games was his creation, he wrote the first bowling physics sim using Excel, and we hired some guy with a PhD in Statistics who wrote Jay's algorithm in assembly for the PSX, and the 3D bowling genre was launched.
