I don't think that's it, I'm just very sensitive to refresh rates (I can tell you instantly when a monitor's running below 85Hz) and 60Hz with lots of white looks absolutely horrible and gives me a headache within ten minutes...it's okay for dark graphics, or just a white-on-black console, but huge sheets of white, like that bootsplash or a word processor or something, look awful. -- adamw
