I noticed that if you slowly hover your cursor over the letters in ms-word, it creates a rainbow like colors at the intersecting point between cursor and the letter. It works best on letters with diagonal lines like ‘W’ or ‘V’. Why does this happen?

If you look closer you can see LEDs. If you look closer you can see transistors. If you look closer… But that’s not what it was designed to do. It’s meant to ‘look good at ‘x’ distance.’ There are higher quality screens that as the price goes up will show less and less ‘odd effects’ if you want to think of it that way, but again these micro-visuals are a side effect of design not what it was built to do. What you’re seeing are decades worth of engineering compromises that end up with what we have today. Every manufacturer has different designs and manufacturing processes that may make a screen behave differently under certain conditions of ambient light and what’s on the screen.
