I'm gonna be running Saturn/PlayStation/Mega Drive into it. But yeah, I'm just being silly. I've considered one of those but straight RGB will do me for now until I can either find a nice 15khz monitor (Philips CM8833), a nice Trinitron or a PVM near me.

I reallly really really love my scaler with scanlines. But when I'm testing something out upstairs in the spare room with a portable CRT, it does still look so much better. wish I never had to part with the 28" 4.3 CRT. I think I miss the curve of the tube also (don't some emulators try to do this now also?)

I must admit, I'm not a fan of curvature on CRTs at all, we forget that it was something that manufacturers were constantly trying to reduce. Hence, CRTs became flatter as we entered the 80s, and then 90s.
Scanlines however, were accepted as unavoidable, hence game developers utilised them with in-game special effects, effects that tend to look odd on LCDs without using scanline generators.

It's just one of those things, like toast always falling butter-side down and night following day.
