Best Answer

Using a CRT originally designed as a RADAR display. The computer then calculated the coordinates of the points to be drawn and digital to analog converters generated the waveforms needed to draw those points one at a time on the screen. Video was NOT used! Drawing recognizable shapes like characters was very slow and consumed significant amounts of computer time.
