Once it becomes (economically) possible to screenprint solar cells in your garage, basement, etc, you guys won't have time to make posters. Imagine what kind of an impact you could make by printing your own solar cells. As soon as a cheap enough flexible transparent conductor for the front electrode becomes available, you could just about 'print' on anything. You could compensate for a lower efficiency rating by turning whatever surface you want into a solar cell. Roof shingles, house siding, etc -- the more the better. I bet that would piss off more than one electric company...
If anyone is better situated to take advantage of this...it's you guys, not necessarily the techies.
