Don’t waste our time, NEC!), whereas this 21.3-inch LCD display can show over 1.7 billion colors simultaneously out of a possible 685 billion colors. For reals, yo. It uses NEC’s Super Advanced-Super Fine TFT with a viewing angle of 170 degrees and has a QXGA resolution of 2048x1536. Take that, OLED!</i>"<br /><br /> <img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/9.jpg" /> <br /><br />Personally, I'd rather have a display that was bright and crisp over one that had billions of colors my eyes can't pick out. Still this can only help the low end displays get better.
