For some reason, the display >>flickers and quite honestly after about two minutes I get a headache. I know >>other people who refuse to use the 3100's for this same reason. What model monitors do you have, and what sort of color scheme? I use DEC's 16" Trinitron and I love it. I have also used our old 15" VR160 and it had some serious problems in my opinion (NOT DEC's opinion mind you, just mine). The only problems I've had with the VR29x-xx monitor was due to the monitors being too close and the scan lines would appear on each screen which acted like a flicker... Joe
