Rick,

Might the filtering of the 60Hz out of the power supplies be poor and 
worse as the CRTs warm up? Remember, they're cold when you move them 
elsewhere for a test.

Alternatively, might the 60Hz fluorescent lighting falling on these 
monitors interact differently with the screen refreshing than on other 
monitors in such a way as to cause visual effects?

Just thoughts. Look for the simple solutions before you blame the 
Martians.
