I think it's the opposite, though I don't know the science behind it
well enough to know for sure.

I don't recall my DMDs ever getting any serious burn-in, though I always
turned down the brightness on them when I wasn't using them.

(I really should dig one out of the garage and get it working again....)

(I should try to find the time to clean up and fire up the /500 again
too!  I think I could even get it on my network now as I finally got an
ethernet board for it, and the TCP/IP software too.)
