The clock has turned black and green at the beginning of the local forecast for whatever reason...I would say that it was for nighttime but it wasn't like that early this morning.
West coast viewers saw the dark clock this morning seeing that it was 1am when the update was rolled out.
So what exactly is the system generating the LF? Is it a brand new STAR? A new type of Intellistar?
What you're looking at is IntelliStar v3. The same computer is generating this that generated the IntelliStar graphics from 2004 and up. It was just a graphical update.
For now, I'd say that "IS v3" should remain a fan name
but this is beyond a graphical update, this is a whole new style.
