Talk:Cromaclear

NPOV Tag
After looking through the article, I found little justification for an NPOV tag. Additionally, it appears that there is no discussion about the possible NPOV issue. I am therefore removing the NPOV tag. Ecopirate 19:38, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

This article seemed wrong, as if at least some parts came from a marketing brochure. I thought "it's been checked before, maybe it's ok" but then I did a bit more searching and found the ChromaClear white paper on a NEC site. A lot of the page is copied from that white paper. That's not neutral and it might even be a copyright violation.

So what's the difference?
Reading over the description, and looking at the image of the mask, I can't see any difference between this and a modern rectangular-mask shadow mask screen. Maybe there is one, but I can't find it in this article. Maury Markowitz (talk) 16:17, 13 February 2011 (UTC)


 * this article mentions the technology in passing. It appears to be nothing more than a trade-name for a slot-mask design. This was very common in the TV market since the 1966 Porta-Color. I assume it was not as common in the computer world due to the need to use circular pixels, but I can't be sure. Maury Markowitz (talk) 18:20, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Inaccurate image
I was a technician at a CRT factory for most of the 90s. Like others, I'm not seeing any major techincial difference between Chromaclear and any other slot-mask CRT. Additionally, the illustration of the brick slot style is a created .gif, not a photo, and appears to be significantly misleading--there should be black matrix lines not only between each set of 3 colors, but between each color. If a CRT were built as shown, it would be nearly impossible to avoid mislanding that caused distinctly visible color errors.

Unless I'm missing something, there doesn't appear to be enough difference between Chromacolor and any other 90's slot mask CRT to justify a separate article.
