It's the same here mostly. The coloring in screen_avg_40.png is, at
least for the most part, very unobtrusive, though, and the shapes look
a bit better than in gray.
Even though the shape of the fonts look best in screen_filter.png, it
actually literally hurts my eyes looking at it -- maybe I have to get
accustomed to it first (1680x1050, 20").

I have the feeling that it's more exhausting for my eyes in general
than gray.
