- You can probably count on it. I've seen some very nice monitors (like my
- non-interlaced 14" ViewSonic 6 and these really cool monitors RPI has on their
- Suns (I have no idea what company makes them, but I know they cost plenty and
- are of generally high quality)) all go moire on that default gray that comes
- up in X. I solve my problem the same way, by bringing up blue instead.
