Abstract: Substrates have a hydrophobic surface coating comprised of the reaction products of a chlorosilyl group containing compound and an alkylsilane. Most preferably the substrate is glass. In one preferred form of the invention, highly durable hydrophobic coatings may be formed by forming a silicon oxide anchor layer or hybrid organo-silicon oxide anchor layer from a humidified reaction product of silicon tetrachloride or trichloromethylsilane, followed by the vapor-deposition of a chloroalkylsilane. Such a silicon oxide anchor layer will advantageously have a root mean square surface roughness of less than about 6.0 nm (preferably less than about 5.0 nm) and a low haze value of less than about 3.0% (preferably less than about 2.0%). Another embodiment of the present invention include the simultaneous humidified vapor deposition of a chlorosilyl group containing compound and a chloroalkylsilane. Specifically, in certain preferred embodiments, the simultaneous vapor deposition onto a glass substrate of silicon tetrachloride (SiCl4) and dimethyldichlorosilane (DMDCS) results in a hydrophobic coating comprised of cross-linked polydimethylsiloxane (PDMSO), which may then be capped with a fluoroalkylsilane (FAS). The cross-linked PDMSO layer may be formed on the surface of the glass substrate, or a silicon oxide anchor layer may be deposited under the cross-linked (PDMSO) layer. SiCl4 ,trimethylchlorosilane (TMCS), trichloromethylsilane and combinations of these silanes therein may also be simultaneously vapor deposited onto a substrate surface so as to achieve hydrophobic coatings of exceptional durability.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a data processing system and method in which
an indicator is used to provide an indication of whether or not it is safe to maintain the
data processing system. Often, the first action taken by maintenance personnel, when
maintaining a data processing system, is to remove the power to that system. This
renders ineffective any means for providing an indication of the state of the data
processing system that is dependent upon power such as, for example, the
conventional motherboard power LED. Suitably, the present invention provides an
indication of whether or not it is safe to maintain the system, even in the absence of
power being connected to the system, using, in preferred embodiments, a bi-stable
LCD, which retains its state in the absence of power.
