Instead of an Invar mask, or other device, they use a grating that uses two horizontal threads to align the vertical ones giving you your dot pitch. I never notice them because I know why they are there and have tuned them out as white noise. I would rather have a superior monitor with two imperceivable horizontal lines than a poor monitor without. Jim Snyder
