I think maybe my stubbornness could be in that I don't like to just keep doing things the old way. If I can find a faster, easier, cleaner way to do something I will try it. If it works for me I adopt it to what I am doing. With computers I will try or do anything new or old. > Oh, yes and there's > (iv) TFT monitors: with a coarser resolution that CRTs, and so > unresponsive that you actually see visible mouse trails as you > move the mouse and colour fringes as your text scrolls. You must have good eye sight. I much prefer the TFT/LCD to the CRT. I have an astigmatism and CRT monitors are very hard on my eyes. Text is nearly impossible for me to read. A TFT/LCD monitor makes it much easier for me to see what is on the screen. I also use plain, clean, block fonts like a Sans (DejaVu Sans when using Linux and Verdana when I have to use a Windows box) rather then a Serif. Screen output is horrible on Windows compared to Linux. > > I will gladly answer your challenge.
