Les, I agrea with Ryan, I found that any more than 10 minutes of Doom or any of those 3d games and I get nauseous. I don't have the same trouble with sims where I'm INSIDE the plane, like Falcon or MS FS. It's purely the fast POV shifts that do it.

Jim I couldn't agree more. I work 8-11 hours a day on a computer, as I am in the web hosting business and answer email all day long and work on servers. I am not just using the computer, I am literally staring at it for hours at a time. LCD is the *only* way to go. Les, I don't think the problem is flicker. My guess is that you can use the computer for extended periods otherwise, right? I'd guess that any 3d type game or simulator would cause you to have migraines. But, IANAD (I am not a doctor).
