No, I miss monochrome displays too. Yes, sure, color can provide some benefit in syntax highlighting, but that's a pretty weak argument. I wonder if there's an interesting reseach opportunity: how complex does a syntax need to be before highlighting is beneficial - and is it ever really? I don't think highlighting ever helps me understand code or even more quickly grasp it - it's mainly just a way to cue a syntax problem.
