One day we will be like the aliens in the classic Cadburys Smash adverts -
"So you fired electrons at phosphor dots and steered them with coils of
copper wire!!!"

electrons at phosphors again (although not steering them with copper) and at
last, we will be able to return to pictures as good as CRTs produced ...
