I'm trying to use my nice new Orchid PRo II in 768x1024x256 mode 
on my NEC Multisync 3D, which required it be interlaced. USing the normal
screen color defs results in simply horrible flicker an jitter.
However, if I make the screen background a nice dark blue, and use a
gray background with white text for windows it looks much nicer and
results in much less headache. If my eyes weren;t getting so old it
would probably be useable all day just fine.
