c2, << this part is especially opaque ... future business, design the little display driver chip to drive it, and add some memory to hold RGB instead of just gray scale? >> What part is opaque? If you fire them red, green, and blue dots to full intensity ya get opaque white, and if ya lower the intensity through the gray scales ya get the opaque natural screen color. Or maybe the palette should be mixed from CMYK? A little MMS with RGB at the link below. Press play and catch the message about the ducks at the end. nokia.com - Eric -

Well, once upon a time, going from "DOS-screens" to gray-scale-Mac and then wincrash, it was important if one had 32kB or 64kB or even 128kB in the VGA unit. Later on it was important with 256, 4096, 16-24-32 bits of colors, 8-16-32-64MB of VGA memory, dual or single port, slow or fast, ISA or PCI, accelerated or not, rendering tits, nipples or fighters, 64 or 128 data buses,etc.. And then it all stumbled on the size and weight of monitors... Ilmarinen And all along DSPs were used to produce the stuff, while some lousy pentiums tried to reproduce it, MMX,SIMD and all. DSPs as in RISC, what has been used for "graphic accelerators", since Intel declared war on anything spelled R-I-S-C, when AMD made the 12MHz 286.
