   This is interesting because before I calibrated my monitor a few days ago,     
   I'd *always* had the default yellow on grey and it had *always* looked     
   just fine. However, now it doesn't and I have to agree that it *is* quite     
   hard to read :(   
      
    AB>> Any way to change that?

   Yep, I've changed mine to red on grey and that looks *much* better.
