[RFI] LCD Monitors

[Kjell W. Strom]

Jim,

It is the back light which is using LEDs, the screen is still
LCD. It always gets confusing when the marketing departments are
trying to describe technology. I used to work with giant
screens, where each pixel consisted of several LEDs. There you
could speak of LED TV!

73,
