iMac LCD screen..... mmm....

hi guys!
i've just bought an iMac widescreen (17 inch) and i've got a little problem: the fonts.
Well, the monitor isn't just much accurate when showing text.
It's quite hard to read it.....

Example: in iTunes the names of the songs are hard to read....

or in Mail I really cannot read the objects of the mail even if they're Lucida Grande 14!!

or (in IE, when selecting text) the selections are so unclear!

Where's the problem?
Is there somebody with an iMac LCD?
Is there a solution or the LCDs are just not very accurate?

Thank you very much.

resolution

- 1440 x 900
- millions of colors

if that can help you:
- font smoothing style: medium
- turn off smoothing: 8 or smaller.

Thanks.

sorry for answering so late.

an example:
that's how i see text with word (arial narrow8, zoom 150%).

if you enlarge a bit you 'll see clearly a lot of spots red.... i checked on my iMac CRT and the text wasn't so "red-spotted".....

do you think that's normal?

am i too much pernickety?

look at the selection with IE....

i know IE sucks, but where's the problem? in IE or in my mac?

Thanks again.
