Assume I'm an idiot. As many will tell you here, this is at many times a reasonably safe assumption. Yes, I know who you are, stop snickering. How do I work NBC/NXC under OSX? When I download the latest package and double-click the app, it opens the (...) (18 years ago, 22-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) Okay, there's a little more to it than this. If you have a display that supports greyscales, it can control the level of the voltage jolt that's applied to each pixel during the actual refresh cycle. That way you get a smoother display with (...) (18 years ago, 22-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt.nxthacking, FTX)

If I understand correctly, to get colors, or at least shades of grey, you have to refresh the screen quickly and the "darker" the pixel, the more often it shows up in the pattern.
