Hello,

Hi, snip.
So, I wonder whether there is anything one can do to rejuvenate those
vaccuum fluorescent diplays:

Clean it. Seriously, when I used to repair VCRs they almost always had
VFD displays and the amount of crud they attract is amazing. Simply
removing the accumulated dust from the glass and the plastic bezel often
brought comments from the owners of how wonderful the new display was
and had we swapped the machine for a new one..

Thanks !
