Quoted from rotordave:Personally, I have no issue with a red DMD. I rarely watch it anyway, only to get information that is required for game play. A DMD conveys this information well.
I'd rather buy a Stern Pro with DMD for $4700 (usd) rather than a Stern Pro with fancy LCD screen for $5500.

I agree.
I *do* like LCD screens and what they can bring to the table. I'm very impressed with how the LCD and the HD movie clips help immerse you in the Hobbit. But I'm only looking at it when the ball is stopped.
The LCD screen most certainly has not "killed red DMD's" for me. I absolutely love the Red DMD animations on my TWD. The artistic creativity that went into creating those dots is *very* impressive, and it is actually something that I will miss when the DMD goes away in future games.
So yeah, the answer to the question posed in the thread title: absolutely not.
