There is no universal law that says that using a Mac makes one 
brilliant, sane or logical. Although most Mac users think they are...

Apple is trying to convince the young and naive that it makes them 
powerful...  :)

Jittery screens can be just that, jittery, and may need repair or 
adjustment.

Sometimes it is just the mhz used on the display. I have noticed that 
for me a mhz over 75 or so is easier on the eyes than a lower one in 
the 60s. Check your monitor control panel or whatever is used for those 
monitors and see if there are any adjustments.
