However, there is another source of flicker: moire patterns. If the raster lines are critically placed with respect to the pixel triads on a dot-matrix CRT, a small variation in position between scans could flicker due to a moire interference. I saw some of this on an "Amiga" monitor at the computer store (the Mandril picture). It's possible that the vertical pixel stripes in the KV-1311CR would obviate that effect. I would like to try the Amiga with the Sony sometime to check it out. I guess I'll hafta wait for mine and cart it over to the monitor store. Jere M. Marrs Tektronix, Inc. tektronix!tekgvs!jerem
