I work in an area where VGA monitors are on 24 hrs a day 365 days a year with
the exact same screen, these are test sites for the instrument we manufacture
in the QC area.  For the record, these are NEC multisync color monitors and
the screens are definitely burned in, I hate to see abuse of such a cool and
beautiful monitor but thats the way it goes, so yes, they do suffer phosfor
burn.
