The displays on the screens (3 and 4) are controlled by a central control unit (6) which receives its instructions from an 'artwork scene' store (8) containing several different artwork programs thereby enabling different artwork to be displayed on the machine without changing the screens (3 and 4). The artwork may be displayed on the screens by means of one of the following; a cathode ray tube, an electro-luminescent display, a vacuum fluorescent display, a gas discharge display, or a liquid crystal display.
