Edited: The ColorTrak 2000 on the other hand was. My grandparents owned owned one and I owned one right until the tube wore out. They even had SCART. There was NOTHING in North America that even used SCART but it came with it anyways.
We had one of those 27" Colortrak 2000s, according to the manual the port wasn't SCART even though it used the same plug. The manual called it an "EIA-Multiport" and it was some sort of interface to plug in a cable descrambler (like an analog CableCard) so you could use the TV's built in tuner and remote to tune Pay-Per-View channels. The idea never went anywhere because cable companies would lose a profit stream in renting cable box remotes (it was a separate charge from the boxes themselves!).
