I have the 17" color monitor, and it seems to be a little unclear.
After about 15 mins or so, my eyes start to go buggy.  I called NeXT
about this problem, and they said that since the monitor is no longer
under warrentee, the only thing they could do would be to exchange it
for a new 17" at a cost of $1465(US) to me.  When I asked about other
alternatives, they said that I could take it to a shop in my local area
to see if they could fix it.  I friend of mine told me that all it
probably needs is to have the "guns" aligned.  Which could make sense,
since the monitor was shipped 4000km by bus when I got it.....

Does anyone know if aligning the "guns" in the monitor will do the trick
to make the screen sharper and less fuzzy?

Tristen.
