Obviously there is no "most comfortable colour combination" - it depends
entirely on your own preferences. Personally, I'm happy with the Windows
default colours, with WEAVE.BMP as the background.

If you're finding looking at the screen tiring, I suggest you experiment with
more subdued colours than the default. Also, try fiddling with the brightness
and contrast controls of your monitor.
