From Wikipedia, "Display Resolution":

"Also in analog connected picture displays such as CRT TV sets, the
horizontal scanlines are not divided into pixels ...."

"ultimately "display resolution" in CRT-type displays is affected by
different parameters such as [electron beam] spot size and focus,
astigmatic effects in the display corners [e.g. shape of the beam, which
is no longer round], the color phosphor pitch shadow mask ..."

"display resolution ... can be an ambiguous term especially as the
displayed resolution is controlled by all different factors in cathode
ray tube (CRT) and flat panel or projection displays using fixed
picture-element (pixel) arrays ..."

LOL, they say that the best thing about banging your head against a wall is
the feeling of relief that you get when you stop.

I know the feeling.

I actually didn't misinterpret anything. What Barry said is actually
what I said. And it is also nice that Barry now admits that CRT has
pixels. ;-)
