Although no one may have followed up on the original article in
comp.sys.mac, I don't subscribe to that newsgroup.  I don't use Macs
but I do design maps for display on workstation monitors and have been
concerned with setting appropriate value levels for the background.
Has anyone experienced the problem mentioned in the original posting
with any monitor using a high value background?
