	Perhaps the quickest (and also dirtiest) solution (as many have
already suggested) to the interlaced-flicker problem is to shell out
the extra cash for the long-persistence monitor.  One potential
problem with this approach is that animation applications might
require faster phosphor response to prevent image blurring.  Thus
many users (myself included) would welcome alternate solutions (I
don't really want to have to carry two monitors).  I think that this
is an area where someone with a unique perspective on the problem
could jump in and make a significant contribution (and a few bucks
too).  In the meantime, reducing the brightness and contrast on the
1080 Amiga Monitor can go a long way towards reducing hi-res flicker
in certain applications.  I have successfully used this approach to
generate BW slides using DeluxePaing in the hi-res mode with a
single bit plane.
