It probably uses a Philips "super flat" CRT. They don't suffer from the geometery and focus problems of the newer completely flat tubes.
Those SCART inputs will probably accept an RGB signal (not component). If any of your gear has an RGB output (most games consoles, some DVD players, some set top boxes) you'll get a much better picture (no more dot crawl or color bleeding) than using composite or S-video.
