Oh, that's a good point. I suspect that it won't work with Pine/Mutt or commandline email handling (vim+mail?). What about clients that don't support (or have disabled) html email? EDIT: Added "Mutt" and non-ht

Plus, the colors/gamma were weird on one of them... You have to install a special color profile or else the contrast would be really screwy.

I know! I would have used it if I would have known about it! This is yet another "X is closing" post where X is something that could have been successful if they would have advertised a little better. =-(

Regarding #2, I tried someone's pair a convention for FIVE MINUTES (or less!) -- instant migraine that lasted the rest of the day. It was horrible. It felt like I was staring at a CRT that was set to a 60 Hz refresh rate.

Definitely not a surprise. I once had to hack a piece of medical equipment in order to make it print to a printer that was manufactured within the previous decade. The only one that it "officially supported" was from about 15 year
