Agreed. I picked up a 15" LCD a few months back (I don't recall the model offhand) and, while it looked great in the store, I rather quickly discovered that I couldn't look at it for long without getting a nasty headache. Fortunately, it was intended for a mini-terminal in my living room, not for my main workstation; I'm not sure that they make an LCD screen yet that I could look at all day without problems. -- With the arrest of Dimitry Sklyarov it has become apparent that it is not safe for non US software engineers to visit the United States. - Alan Cox "To prevent unauthorized reading..." - Adobe eBook reader license
