Re: [Phys-l] The Moonbeam state strikes again.

Plasma TV's I understand.

All those lightning bolts DO add up!!!

It would require a substantial bank of fluorescent tubes for them to get within a few percent of the plasma screens.
And forward thinking LCD devices (Apple) are already using LED's instead of the more power hungry fluorescent illumination.
