Does anyone have a good recommendation for maximising LCD life? My 
understanding is that you should set the screensaver to blank the screen 
after about 45 mins, so avoiding excessive "on-time", but not wanting 
too many re-starts of the CCFL.

Incidentally, you can fairly easily replace the backlights if you want.

Lastly, if you're getting eye-strain, have you checked your fonts? Many 
people (myself included) find that anti-aliasing causes eye-strain: the 
fonts have "blurry" outlines, so are hard to focus on.
