1) doesn't hurt your eyes, at least not my eyes, i programmed an assignment for over 18hrs the other day and didn't ever have a headache or blurred vision
2) check the specs of this LCD monitor, 4ms responce, 1280x1024 resolution and magicBright II, it is easy on the eyes, takes almost no space on my desk and is plenty bright enough for the darkest of games, unlike all the monitors they try to pass off at comp stores with the ATI or simlar prog running, the 930 matches them without maxing out the contrast OR brightness, and at <6lbs anyone could carry this thing home.
