New LED Backlights For LCD Screens

Posted by timothy on Thursday August 23, 2001 @08:07AM from the you-can-never-have-too-many dept.

stuffman64 writes: "LumiLeds has a new LED backlighting technology based on their Luxeon Star LEDs. It is meant to replace the power-hogging CCFL lights currently in use. Benefits include longer battery life for notebooks, less weight, and a larger color gamut (up to 130% of the NTSC standard). The release can be found here." I wish I could hook up one of their evaluation kits to my machine right now;) The same site has quite a lot of LED-related information throughout.

Why the hell are posting this useless crap over and over ?

Even for a troll this is totally retarded.

You probably didn't write this stuff yourself and just did a cut-n-paste from another troll.

At least be a little creative.

Looks like the new Slashcode doesn't deal out mod points with as much frequency. Check out how all the stories have posts modded down at healthy levels (that's michael and the editors) but most have barely and posts at the 3+ threshold. Better fix that guys, or it will be too obvious you are modding down those you disagree with (or outright deleting posts with the new "numbering" system.
