I definitely agree.  What I find discouraging is that no one at the dealer
or at Apple (yes, we called them) ever put it in terms of a tradeoff.
What we heard was "sorry it's just that way."  What I think would have
been the better response to customers is something like:  "in order to
to get the best picture quality we (Apple) have chosen to use Sony
Trinitron monitors.  Inherent in the Trinitron design is the use of
a stabilizing wire which casts a slightly noticeable shadow.  We felt
that the improved picture quality outweighed the negative aspects of the
wire shadow."  Now that would have made me a happier customer and
would have saved all of you from hearing me bitch.
