Rick, I came to the identical conclusion; over the past 18 months,

with my new 21 " digital Hitachi monitor, I've noticed my cheeks turn

red with itchy breakout after about 90 minutes. This was not a

problem -- not so much as I noticed, anyway -- with my old 19 " analog

Gateway monitor.

Thanks for the suggestion: I've just lowered the brightness and

contrast.

Others here have mentioned they also react to monitors. Anyone know

why this happens, and if all monitors are created equal in this

regard?
