Nor would you unless you've been given a flat screen to use
before (unlikely as yet in a commercial environment).

I would: despite experiencing the effect you described on day
one, I'd find really hard now to go back to a conventional CRT. 

Mind you, I was aware of the fact that they're different and that
some people seem unable to get used to (a) the effect you
describe and/or (b) the two faint grey horizontal lines that
flat-screen CRTs always exhibit - one a third of the way up the
picture, one two thirds; these, though faint, are noticeable
against a white background, e.g. when text processing. So I drove
a good distance to my intended supplier's showroom to view one in
operation before placing my order.
