People find CRT computer monitors annoying with too low a refresh rate even with static text images. No CCD involved. As you say, it might have something to do with scanning vs all at once. The LCD monitors that turn off the backlight are doing it as a scan. I wonder if they tried all at once. _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
