From: alee@mnemosyne.cs.du.edu (Alec Lee) Subject: Scan Rate vs. Font Size Summary: Which is more important? Organization: University of Denver, Dept. of Math & Comp. Sci. Lines: 10 This past winter I found myself spending a ridiculous amout of time in front of my computer. Since my eyes were going berserk, I decided to shell out some serious money to upgrade from a 14" to a 17" monitor. I'm running 800x600 at 72 Hz. My eyes are very grateful. However, I find myself using a smaller font with less eye strain. Has anyone else had this kind of experience? I thought that small fonts were the culprit but it seems that flicker was my real problem. Any comments? Alec Lee alee@cs.du.edu
