for the last three months, i've had my amiga in my noisy office.
i've seen a tendency for the 1080 monitor to badly flicker
periodically -- it only lasts a second, like a "visible bell",
and happens at ~4-5 minute intervals.  i had it pegged as just
a slight flakiness in the software, and ignored it.

over the holidays i took it home again and noticed that the
flickers are accompanied by a snapping sound like a spark discharge.
the technician at my dealer thinks he's noticed a similar effect
on one of the store's display models.  anyone else seen this?
