AW, man.... if you view pornography on a grayscale screen it
is instantly transmogrified into "art." "Babes" instantly become
"nudes" and "screwing" becomes "coupling."

In my case, however, the switch from grayscale to color was 
inspired by all those cool games that have recently begun
appearing on the long neglected Mac gaming market.
