Image Dithering: Eleven Algorithms and Source Code
Dithering is still a surprisingly applicable technique, not just for practical reasons (such as preparing a full-color image for output on a non-color printer), but for artistic reasons as well. Dithering also has applications in web design, where it is a useful technique for reducing images with high color counts to lower color counts, reducing file size (and bandwidth) without harming quality. It also has uses when reducing 48 or 64bpp RAW-format digital photos to 24bpp RGB for editing.

Update on the Sony PVM-2530: probably should use RGB before diagnosing color issues (e.g. luma). I did have to get in my custom CMPTR board to do it, but everything lined up perfectly. I do need to fix the geometry a bit, but for right now I think I'll be playing a few games after work.
