have you considered getting a tft display and retiring your tube monitor?
the energy savings will very likely balance the cost within a year, plus
you get lots of extra desk real estate. and no stroboscope, ever.
and if you don't rely on excellent wide-gamut color reproduction, even
the cheapest tfts should be sufficient.
when i was using crts, i found i also needed at least 85hz to be
comfortable, particularly in the office, where you'd be turning your
head often and then see the strobing trail in the corner of the eye -
very confusing. for the same reason, i still don't like DLP projectors -
i don't see rainbows when looking straight on, but as soon as the head
moves, i feel like i just popped a handful of mushrooms.
