Does ASUS use that same display on any of their other laptops? I’m willing to give up some horsepower for portability.

OLED (Organic LED) will make it’s way eventually. However, right now there are still a lot of bugs to be worked out when putting OLEDs into large panels. Hence, you see them most often used for small devices/phones/etc. I am excited to see these nifty little self lit diodes make their way into monitors as well ;)

What about AMOLED screens? Any idea why Samsung’s high-contrast OLED screens don’t make it to the professional desktop for colour-aware applications?

Thanks for the comment. I added the acronym definition to the start of the article. But, I didn’t want this to be really a “dictionary” style article just defining terms, I wanted everyone to have a good practical grasp of the concepts. Hence it is long, but hopefully it was an easy and enjoyable read.

Not forgotten, there are simply too many types of IPS related technologies from all the manufacturers to list. Hence, we just kind of talk about it as a whole. Thanks for the comment!
