OK, fair enough. My point was simply that you don't get an array of 
Pixel structures, you can an array of some kind of indirect reference to 
Pixel structures. (As you rightly point out, they might be actual 
pointers, or object table indices, or something else entirely...) My 
point was merely that there's (at least one) level of indirection present.
