dot pitch is an issue.. Have gotten Vision-Pro's to
Tovis SVGA tubes to work in a 6100 setup but at least
in the case of VP, the rez is brutal. So its not just
angle to consider. I have an Amplifone Gravitar and I
cannot tell any pincushioning or any issues against a
6100. From what I have read the only place you will
see a 90/100 issue is the exploding death star in Star
Wars.
