Hi Steve,

I double check it last night.  Yeah, when I switch it on, it gives me a
rainbow if it's warm and nothing if it's cold (exactly as you said).  The
glare from the on-process is not that strong.  What bothers me is the
off-process -  everytime I switch it off, it always gives me this really
"STRONG" glare (just black and white), it's like lightning, thunder strike.
It starts from all four corners, and eventually emerges into center, and
disappear.  It's that strong that I have to look away everytime I turn off
the monitor.   I checked a few monitors (different brands, CTX, Mag, Nokia,
NEC) at work, they all just go from dim to bright, no glare what so ever.
Why's that the case?

Thanks in advance.
Wendy
