[RTTY] Article on possible LCD Displays Replacement..

[Phil Florig]

Hi all,

Tnx guys for the additional information on the LCD displays.  Very interesting
reading...

I no sooner sent that out and today receive a copy of "Electronic Business" and
has an article on the possible replacement to the LCD called OLED.  Some 
patents
are running out and may be push to this because as they say:

"OLED displays have significant advantages over LCDs. OLEDs are made by 
placing organic film between two conductors. Electrical current is applied, 
causing emission of a bright light. Unlike the more widely used LCDs, OLED 
displays do not require backlighting. This means that an OLED panel is 
thinner than an LCD panel, requires less power, and weighs less. They're 
more durable and operate effectively in a broader range of temperatures"

Complete story here:

I am not well informed on displays and the information here is quite 
informative.  Tnx agn guys
for all your inputs.

I am posting these just for information and have no connections with the 
companies.
(Just in case I need a disclaimer)......

PS: I have two 21" ViewSonic and one 17" and are great. I do cadd on them 
and so far have not seen any problems.
Of course since "semi-retired" also use for radio.  Going to try multiple 
screens on one monitor in future soon
as I figure out how to do it.  May even use two monitors on one 
computer.....  The info here has been very good
for doing some of this and may also try the wall mounts.
