I cannot speak for compatibility, but they may still be worth using in some circumstances. For example, I seem to recall the Videx supporting character attributes besides inverse or flash. Of course, most Apple II software won't support that. On the other hand, if you are accessing a Unix system you may be able to put those extra attributes to use. For example: the termcap found on most modern Unix distributions does support the Videx card.
