  One of the best things I've ever purchased for my Amiga cost me
  $20.00.  It's an anti-glare/anti-flicker screen that looks like
  the smoked plexiglass on motorcycle helmet shields.  I can't
  remember the name although I've seen it advertised in Amazing
  Computing.  Not only does it reduce glare (and DRASTICALLY) reduce
  flicker, but it makes the colors on my old 1080 look richer.
