Wow, vector-based graphics in the 60s! It could do instances of symbols just like Flash! very impressive. Specially when he made the lines parallel with "one click". Neither Flash nor Illustrator can do that! :)

1. Double buffering takes huge amounts of memory, which would have been unthinkable back then.2. The display is actually drawing each line separately rather than putting pixels so double buffering doesn't apply. The limit is how fast the display can draw lines.3. Computers were too expensive back then for anyone to think about using them for something so frivolous as architecture. |
