- Turn up the refresh rate over 60hz. I like 72 - 75 Hz.
- Turn up the contrast, turn down the brightness
- Mount the monitor as high as you can, so it is straight in front of you
- Make a hood of cardboard around the monitor to block glare
- The florescent lights will make a glare on the CRT, esp if they don't have
proper light filtering. This probably can not be fixed cheaply without
replacing the light shields.
