Although their use is well known for monochrome screens, he (the friend) believed that they were not required for colour screens. At this point we both realised that neither of us knew whether this is true. So this is the question - are colour screens equally as liable to burn as monochrome. If not, why? It would certainly be nice to know the truth. Mike Overton (ex2mike@pyr.swan.ac.uk)
