[DuoList] Duo 280c Graphics/Display Granularity

[Samual Acorn]

normal... its dithering the colors... (it does it on mine too when
using aaron... [a program that makes OS7 look like OS8]... it also
does it to the buttons on netscape (with or without aaron))

the only 'defect' (if you could consider it one) is the ancient LCD
technology.. 'active color lcd gamma' is a way to (try to) improve the
LCDs contrast in software.... a hack basically... and not a very good
one at that...
