Thanks for all who replied to my question about a new 17" monitor flickering.   
One common suggestion was to move the monitor away from my MegaPixel mono--I  
tried various positions and orientations and moving it as much as 4 feet from  
the mono monitor, with no effect whatsoever on the flickering.

However, the flickering has stopped.  My only guess is that it may have  
something to do with the electrical service in our building, and that on  
weekends (when the load is lower) this phenomenon does not occur.  I'll be able  
to prove or disprove this hypothesis on Monday.  I'm hoping it just magically  
fixed itself.
