Here are some Vectrex news items for February 20, 2011:

More Vectrex YouTube stuff (oscilloscope)[]

For those that don't know, an oscilloscope (which a Wikipedia article on it can be seen here) is an electronics' test instrument showing signal voltages, displaying the results on x- and y-axis' (sound familiar, like how the Vectrex' lines are drawn?).

Older oscilloscopes used cathode ray tubes as their displays, but the modern ones use LCD or LED screens. So what do you do with one of these old oscilloscopes? Hook up a Vectrex emulator to it from your computer, of course! YouTube user chipos81 did that, which his video of his results (although they are pretty rough) can be seen here.

People are just not going to run out of ideas in regards to new things to do with their Vectrexes, are they?
