Monitor with wierd lines in display

Hello all,
I have just purchased a Viewsonic P95f+ PerfectFlat Monitor. I have noticed what I thought to be a defect in the display. There are two very very thin horizontal lines; one is about 3 inches from the top and the other is about 3 inches from the bottom. They are typically only noticeable when you have a really light background (like opening a word doc). I called Viewsonic to inquire about this thinking it to be a defect. They told me that this was normal and explained that it had to do with the aperature grill. The tech person called them damper wires. My question is: is anyone else experiencing this effect on their monitor that includes an aperature grill or am I just getting taken for an idiot by Viewsonic ?

Thanks,

Duke

P.S. Not really sallyfields.

These lines were famous on Sony Trinitron tubes, yes there are actually wires inside the tube that cause this.

Captain Obvious has a monitor withsuch lines!
All part of the design, but really only visible with bright (white) screens!

After a while the Captain didn't notice the lines unless he stopped and looked at them.
