 if the rig has a display, you ARE going to look at it. Most televisions sold

When I use a PRO I reset the monitor to B&W.  Even though it's backward 
(white on black) I find this combination easier to view than the color screens.  
Part of it is personal preference, part of it is accommodation to a severe 
"color deficiency" eye issue.  I still consider the monitor of the MAC SE computer 
(9" black on white monochrome) as the most "eye friendly" computer screen I've 
ever used.

I pity designers.  No matter what they do, for whatever reason, a certain 
group will be dissatisfied.
