Which differences? Are you speaking about your

Yet ANOTHER example of putting words in my mouth. Why don't you just
try the truth? I've never said
that I can tell the difference between 440 and 441.

Refresh my memory here Jenn. You did bring the issue
of hearing that difference up, didn't you?

Yes I did, in the context of a discussion. But did I
ever state that I can hear that difference? No, you
made that up. Why?

Jenn, here's what you wrote on 2/24, at 1:51 pm

Yep.

You clearly stated that you could hear the difference.

I beg to differ. In that post the "yep" was her
agreement with my recitation of a part of a question she
was asking me.
Sorry to let the cat out of the bag, what with y'all
being so entertaining:

The article does not really say that anybody can hear
the difference between 440 and 441 Hz.

It says that 440 and 441 Hz being played together at
the same time sounds different than just 440 Hz being
played. In fact people can hear the difference between 440 Hz
and 440 Hz (i.e., the identical same frequency) being
played from 2 or more sources at the same time if a
certain nearly universal condition is met. What is that condition?

OooH Oooh.... call me... my hand is up!

Ok...they can't be equidistant or in phase.

Is that it? What do I win?

Some potentially useful tips about how to optimize the appearance of your
new LCD.

One - several gave you, which involves matching your display settings to the
pixel configuration of the LCD. It's perfectly fine but a bit superficial
and creates other problems that are fortunately readily adressible for a
fine overall result.

Three others are things that nobody else mentioned:

One relates to the Cleartype option:

Display properties, appearance, effects and select "clear type" edge
filtering.

One is Display Properties, Advanced, General, DPI setting.

The other is more complex to use but allows making more selective changes:

Display Properties, Appearance, Advanced, Item, etc...
