I used to print out little marios.. Glad to know two other people kept them *cheers* Q-Delta:

That's all. srsly wtf All I said was The original game boys that these were made for were dot matrix.

ROFL @Reboot We were talking about the camera and the gameboy displays, which is why I think he was referring to the display and not a printer. Yes he made a blatantly obvious, and possibly poorly understood statement, but at least he actually looked it up this time, which is a vast improvement on his current track record. This is a behavior I'd like to encourage... LOL... BTW did you know that early gameboys came with Tetris? :D Yeah, in fact, early gameboys even let you play games.

ROFL

Which only goes to prove my point, that casemods has no idea what he is taking about. There are lcd diplays that are not dot matrix (like segment displays). And there were a lot of Tiger games and such that used segment displays. But that's a "lower" technology, not a general purpose display. And all of my examples, from your laptop to the Hubble, are dot matrix. Pointing out minor technical discrepancies in my rhetoric doesn't change that casemods obviously thought that "dot matrix display" had something to do with "dot matrix printers" and decided to share his "insight" with the rest of us without knowing what he was talking about. ok, phyreblade your actually doing a better job of defending casemods than he is of defending himself.

Not to mention that not every LCD display is a dot matrix display. You also have segment displays, which are an application specific variation of the pixel display, such as the popular 7, 14 and 16 segment displays used in calculators. Also, lots of small, early hand held electronic games like Donkey Kong and such used a whole bunch of specially shaped LCD segments, not dot matrices, for the display. (Though I'm not sure he know that.) Either way, please do not begrudge him his win... LOL @reboot,
