For some reason, I’ve always found old, obsolete display technology fascinating. I’m hoping some of you out there will too, since I drone on about it for over four minutes here. Still, one plane displays are pretty obscure and hard to find information about, so hopefully you’ll find your four minutes adequately spent. If not, let me know and I’ll see about giving you four of my minutes to make up for it.
