On my LCD monitor I noticed some colour aberration with Vista in 3D, which was not present in 2D XP.

I took a close up pic of the core monitor in the sidebar of Vista, which shows colour bleed/RGB not focused properly which I've only noticed in Vista, never similar stuff in 2D XP, so I dont think viewing Windows in 3D is as good as 2D.
Maybe its the graphics card? Geforce using 1:1 pixel output.
Or have I just got too much time on my hands lol.
I do remember XP having a sharper desktop.
Can you force Vista to display a 2D desktop? (its still 3D with classic)
I also took a software screenshot & resized to match, of the same area (shown below main shot) which demonstrates I really do have too much time to waste...

DVI 1:1 pixel, so no better an input.

If you look at the software shot, the 'off' colours match the photograph, so it dont look like 3D can properly resolve RGB to the pixel? Noticeable on text elsewhere too.

I know its nitpicking, but interesting.
