I guess almost everyone uses fluorescent lighting in their

is especially a bother when working on one. Any suggestions for taming
fluorescents or lighting alternatives?

I have a boom desk lamp and replaced the 40 bulb with an 11w flouro - you
know the "folded up" type that screws into the socket. NO rf hash, and it
runs very cool.

BTW, in the past I found that these globes desensed the IR remote on my TV
( I guess it couldn't handle the flicker rate).
