Using Postscript halftoning, the screen is capable of displaying many more shades of gray. Most system grays (icons, window borders/buttons, menus) however are made with the pure grays for a sharp look. Each pixel can also have 2 bits/pixel of alpha for transparency. In some cases, the transparency is stored implicity (eg, the whole window is opaque, or alpha = data for the whole window) to save memory.
