Can you set your computer to "no background?"?
Without a picture, yes you can... What I mean is no color, just the lcd screen...like a calculator display.
Ohh.. typing ?" gives you another ? in the final page...In yahoo Answers.
Sorry, this is not part of my question. I just discovered it upon posting this one
So far.. great answers. I just can imagine a screen which looks like "off" with text clearly showing up.

No.
you computer has a a back lite LCD, meaning there is literally nothing behind the picture. a calculator just works by making magnetic ink form to certain shapes. even if your using an on cathode monitor the pixels in your screen will always show some type of color, or at least light.

There is always something there - even if you used a transparent background, you would get black on the screen.
The display circuitry interprets nothing (or 0) as something ie:a picture of nothing - normally black.

Amazon Kindle and Infibeam phi(old model) works something like that though they are not computers. Phi supports both text and graphics.

So what would a 'no color' background look like it? Just change it to a solid black/white.

No you can't, when your monitor gets a signal from your GPU, it defaults to 0 (black).
However, it's an interesting idea, and would be kind of cool.

you can set it to solid color and choose the color you would like. thats as close as it gets.
