) No.  What you might be thinking of is the Hedley monitor, which does eliminate

	Not quite.  there *ARE* companies advertizing amiga->IBM Monocrome
adapters that virtually eliminate flicker (not the interlace, however).
In fact, I just talked to someone on CIS( forgot the name, sorry), that had
done just that.  

	There's also a paper-white grey-scale monitor occasionally offered
in Computer Shopper, that I've been wondering how much flicker it would show.
