I have not really tried to figure the syntax highlighting but first check to
see if the bg color is set properly.  I found the default sucked.  if you
are in a terminal with a black backgound try
:set bg=dark
:syn on
and see if that does not help.  If you are ding this in X you might want to
try gvim is is a gui vim.  very cool.  the default for it is a light
backgound and the highlighting will probably be readable.  I like the black
backgound so I  aliased vi="gvim -reverse" and then set the bg=dark and syn
on stuff in ~/.vimrc.
