Abstract: In a liquid crystal display device that prevents corrosion of a signal line in the device, a plurality of signal lines are provided at the inner side of a cutting line on a substrate. A shorting bar is provided at the outer side of the cutting line. A connection line connects the signal lines to the shorting bar in such a manner to cross the cutting line. Thus, the signal line is connected to the shorting bar with the aid of the connection line formed from a transparent conductive material at an area corresponding to the cutting line of a lower substrate. The connection line is exposed when the lower substrate is cut along the cutting line, so that corrosion of the signal line can be prevented.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for preparing polyester resins copolymerized with glycol for modification such as 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol, in which the content of said glycol ingredient for modification ranges from 20 to 80 mol % of the total glycol content. Dicarboxylic acid such as terephthalic acid is esterified with ethylene glycol and said glycol for modification. The esterification product is subjected to polycondensation in the presence of a titanium dioxide/silicon dioxide coprecipitate catalyst, said catalyst being in the form of 4% or less strength by weight suspension in glycol. The copolyester prepared as above shows excellent transparency and color properties in addition to being produced at high efficiency.

Abstract: A hard disk system connected to a computer system through a network. The hard disk system includes a central processing unit (CPU) which is independent from a CPU of the computer system. The hard disk is configured so that the computer system can utilize the hard disk system in a similar manner as a hard disk rigidly attached to the computer system. However, since the hard disk system is not part of the computer system, it can be easily reconfigured for another computer system during an upgrade. Further, as the central processing unit of the hard drive system is independent from the computer system, the reconfiguration of the hard disk can be accomplished when the hard disk system is redesignated to another computer system.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for preparing polyester resins copolymerized with 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol. In the preparation method, ethylene glycol and 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol are fed with the molar ratio of the whole glycol component to terephthalic acid ranging from 1.3 to 3.0, and then esterified.
