E-ink display would definitely be neat, it would give the display a look similar to the original
It might also be neat to implement a touchscreen, it would work well with a resistive touchscreen (supports stylus)

@avadondragon It seems like you may need to take a break. The other poster is not a troll and we are all here to help each other when we can. Assume good intentions rather than bad ones. The language and tone in your post isn’t great, so maybe take a step back and have a think about what you were hoping to get out of that.

It’s wild that if someone defends themselves on this website, THEY’RE the bad guy.

It was very, very obvious that GRudolf94 was the problem here. How dare avadondragon point it out?

@avadondragon - I don’t think anyone wants to see you leave. I for one would love to see an e ink screen mod done for one of these PowerBooks. Not particularly because it would better than the original screen, but because:
1. Any replacement that’s modern is good to have
2. I just think that would be a neat mod to do.

If you don’t want to see people leave, then you should support them when someone like GRudolf94 makes a poor attempt to bully them.

I agree completely. Although that was somewhat my point. I don't engage with this community often and now I need to take a break. Should I bother wasting my time coming back? I don't actually have to contribute anything to get what I need here so why bother posting anything ever? Am I too sensitive to some random stranger on the internet telling me how I should spend my time or that "LCD signals are already well-understood." Absolutely I am too sensitive. My Zen should be better. That shouldn't bother me at all but it does Oh well time to withdraw from society again. See you guys in a few years maybe.

I dont see that there was anything wrong with how you responded. And the fact that several users chided you for defending how you enjoy your hobby and use your time shows how the culture of this website is shifting for the worse.

There was an older user on here at one time that shared tons of knowledge and a bunch of younger users piled on them for defending their knowledge and they left. It sucks.
