     The NEC 3D should not be ran too long in 1024 x 768 mode
because of the feature referred to as interlaced.  When a display
is interlaced, you will tend to see a flicker on the screen.  This
flicker is caused by the monitor needing to refresh the display
to get the 1024 x 768 more often than when a lower resolution 
is displayed on the screen.  This means that most people will be
able to see these additional refreshes - bad news.
     To get rid of this flicker effect, you can upgrade to the
NEC 4D or get the SEIKO CM-1450 or the Sony 1304.
