Heh also sounds like the gaia field introduced in the Dreaming Void series - and I think the gaia field is even better than in the Reality Dysfunction. :)

I have a theory that this is why the Japanese automakers were so successful in North America too.

One thing you forgot: Print does not have the screendoor effect that LCD does.

Screendoor effect = the gaps between the pixels of an LCOS/LCD/DLP/AMOLED display. Print does not have this issue because of the dot spray pattern of ink.

Iain Banks did this in his Culture books, back in the early 1990s. :)
