Microsoft Engineers Invent Displays That Top LCDs For Efficiency
MechEMark writes with this excerpt from a hope-inspiring article at the IEEE Spectrum, which says "Researchers from Microsoft say they've built a prototype of a display screen using a technology that essentially mimics the optics in a telescope but at the scale of individual display pixels. The result is a display that is faster and more energy efficient than a liquid crystal display, or LCD, according to research reported yesterday in Nature Photonics ... The design greatly increases the amount of backlight that reaches the screen. The researchers were able to get about 36 percent of the backlight out of a pixel, more than three times as much light as an LCD can deliver. But Microsoft senior research engineer Michael Sinclair says that through design improvements, he expects that number to go up — theoretically, as high as 75 percent."

That's a post worthy of a -1, Troll, but I have to agree in any case. Invention is not compatible with open source schtuf, and I see the "communism" angle (a Chineses copy, etc.). Maybe a +1, Insightful, but the crowd here biased toward the negative side when the truth hurts. I'd give you a +1 but I'd have to kill myself after.
In other news, your girlfriend has anal herpes. Yes, anal herpes. Except that by girlfriend, I mean you. And by anal herpes, I mean anal herpes. On your anus.
There's this joker on Slashdot, 'justhatched',
And his rim was bright red, as if scratched,
'just' walked up to the doc,
And got checked, butt to cock,
Diagnosis: just herpes, of the crack.
Love and congrats, on several levels,
