Another disadvantage would be if the colour screens use "tricolour" colour formation methods as, for example, LCD screens do. This would reduce the inherent resolution by a factor of 3 - a 166 dpi mono screen would become a 56 dpi colour one - and that would have a disastrous effect on text quality.
I'd like to see colour screens, but
not at the expense of reduced resolution.
