ResumoThis text reports on conclusions derived from the building and use of the 85†, an elaborate raster scan display system for computer graphics applications. The titled plurality is justified by a generality and by a superset of degrees of freedom in the specific device, all of which no one application warrants and all of which have immense programming implications. The underlying and now generally accepted assumption is that the future of computer graphics is in raster scan technologies. This paper concludes that future implementations ought to be primarily mass memories, rarely scan conversion techniques, and never run-length lists.
