MSNBC is participating in Olympic coverage and the odd pixel located just to the left of the MSNBC logo is a part of the technical component of coordinating NBC, MSNBC, CNBC, and Bravo. While I don't understand exactly the "what or how" part, I do know that it is something that is designed to help prepare for the Olympic coverage. David Shuster explained it today:
"The little pixel dot will let cable operators know they will be getting the proper Olympics feed. All of the networks of NBC will be bringing you Olympic coverage but some sports will be on MSNBC, others on CNBC, others on Bravo, etc., so again, the pixel dot is part of the technical effort with our cable operators to ensure that you see the sports here on MSNBC that you've been promised in Olympic programming guides."

What is depth buffer method?
The Z-buffer algorithm is a convenient algorithm for rendering images properly according to depth. To begin with, a buffer containing the closest depth at each pixel location is created parallel to the image buffer. Each location in this depth buffer is initialized to negative infinity. Now, the zIntersect and dzPerScanline fields are added to each edge record in the polyfill algorithm. For each point that is to be rendered, the depth of the point against the depth of the point at the desired pixel location. If the point depth is greater than the depth at the current pixel, the pixel is colored with the new color and the depth buffer is updated. Otherwise, the point is not rendered because it is behind another object.
