Do yellow pixels on a monitor really improve vibrant colors?

Asked by HungryGuy (16044points) June 11th, 2010

I’ve seen ads for a monitor that have yellow pixels in addition to the red, green, and blue ones. Now, my scientific mind tells me that you can produce any colour in the spectrum with the correct proportions of RGB, and so the yellow pixels are totally superfluous and so much marketing nonsense. But maybe, just maybe, there’s something to it. What do others think?
