I may be having the same issues as you. I am super sensitive to changes in my display. And I am also conditioned to looking at text on an LCD which is super bright and super crisp. The text on my CRT isn't horrible, it just isn't great. However, the text on my CRT at work looks better. The work CRT uses shadow mask technology, not aperture grill. I read somewhere that aperture grill monitors are just not very good at displaying text, which if true, sucks since I plowed down $500 bucks on my NEC monitor. That said, it seems that others on this board don't have any issues.
Rob,
I'm in line to talk to a tech person on Mitsu live chat right now. The only LCD I ever used it my g/f laptop and it is really clear on text. Looks like crap on games compared to two monitors but is "okay" I guess.
My IBM P72 17" is an aperature grill also and I'd say it looks about the same. Like I said when I get home tonight from class i'll compare them again on text and see what is going on.
For example, right now i'm looking at the reply box and the text is really clear in the middle the screen but the tet up where it says "Reply to Topic: NEC CRT Monitors" is blurry and hard to focus on. If I drag the box down about 6" it becomes crisp. Please, give that a try and see if it does it to you too. I will also compare with my friends 930sb
I paid 199.00 for mine it was refurb but still, i'd like it to look the way it is supposed to!
