It's amazing to me how people can go on for days about completely
off-topic stuff like whether or not LCDs give people headaches, but
completely ignore thread(s) about trying to fix classic gear.

You're not imagining it - I have noticed the
same
thing. The picture of a good CRT beats an LCD any day
for me. And, for whatever reason, LCD's seem to give
me headaches. I don't know what it is, but something
about them, I get headaches after a few hours. Mono
terminals never give me problems - LCD's do. Go
figure.
Er, you guys *are* using the LCD's at their native resolution,
I hope. Otherwise the monitor is interpolating on top of whatever
your O/S is doing to scale and draw the image. In my experience,
the monitor does a lousy job of this, so you definitely need to
run an LCD at it's native resolution. Maybe you can set it up
to letterbox the display from your classicmp gear :-).
(I'm on a 24" Samsung LCD in 1920x1200 and liking it a lot, but
it's *way* off topic :-).)
