I didn't say CRT's bother me, and I run all mine at 85hz or better.

I work with my office overheads off, with a small lamp providing indirect lighting for my desk so that I don't have any glare off the screen either. I pay a lot of attention to my work environment. I use a Kinesis Countered keyboard (highly recommended; eliminated the pain I sometimes developed in my wrists and forearms after a day of typing), and spent considerable time adjusting my chair, keyboard tray, and monitor to proper heights. If only I can convince work to buy me an Aeron...

im ok with CRTS above 85hz... any lower and i DO notice a slight, i dunno flicker... 60hz will give me a MEGA headache within 10minutes

Refresh rates on TFT's are totaly different though, 60hz wont flicker at all.

All TFT's will ghost unless its under 16ms refresh (about 90hz)
