        I fail to see the productivity of this topic and am growing tired of
the condecending tone sometimes being used.  Simply put, with enough RAM and
a 120hz monitor true flicker fixing could be accoplished.  But, it would only
improve interlace displays, and should effectively be disabled on
non-interlaced displays.  Since the costs are high and the benfits are
limited, only professionals or very serious hobbiests might purchase this
stuff (if it existed), so as developers we should ignore it because this is
such a *small* part of the market.

        I for one would love to see a Video-Double buffering unit at just
about any reasonable price (say under $1000).  In working on stere-3D, and
the frame rate issue is much more important here.  Any of you hardware types
have any ideas?
