bit-tech.net — Ever wondered how the monitor that sits on your desk actually works? This is a really good guide with pictures to illustrate how the picture is formed. The article also has the disassembly of a LCD monitor to show what it's made up of inside and a look at future display technology. Some pretty cool stuff!

Great article! I liked it because it wasn't too technical and wasn't too dumbed down (at least for me).
