| | Computer display - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | A computer display, monitor or screen is a computer peripheral device capable of showing characters and/or still or moving images generated by a computer and processed by a graphics card. | | | A trend of miniaturization within computer displays has seen a general move away from the older, bulky CRT devices in the general direction of flat screens as found in modern laptops. | | | Once an essential component of a computer terminal, computer displays have long since become standardized peripherals in their own right. |

| | Find Device Drivers |
| | When a new hardware device is added to the computer, such as a display adapter, its driver must be installed in order to use it. | | | A display driver is extremely complex and error prone and is known to cause erratic behavior in Windows. | | | Also called a "device driver," [a driver ] is a program routine that links a peripheral device to the operating system. |

| | Proposed Display Timing Standard Addresses Demands of Digital Flat-Panel Displays |
| | To display visual information on a screen correctly—whether it is a CRT, LCD panel, or other analog/digital device such as a consumer HDTV monitorthe computer needs to convert the information to a sequence of electrical signals and send the signals in an orderly and timed way to the display device. | | | The result is a coherent interface between the system graphics and display input on these computers. | | | Displays play a key role in defining the user experience and are by far the most prevalent type of computer-human interface in use. |

| | Any device that uses PostScript has to be licensed from Adobe, so if Apple wanted to use Display PostScript they'd have to pay Adobe a fee for every OS or computer sold. | | | As Display PostScript has the potential to reduce the need for a PostScript printer, as the PostScript code could be 'rendered' on the computer, then sent to the printer in a standard 'bitmap' or raster form, Adobe may want to impose a limitation on the output quality to non-PostScript (and therefore non-licensed) printers. | | | What is displayed on screen is a representation of the document, but not based on the actual true PostScript code, this code is not 'run' until it gets to the printer. |
