Since the effect on the actual display is governed by how fast you can 
show a new picture, it makes no difference if they aren't the same (and 
I never claimed they were).

Apparently, you're not much on math.  1/60 of a second is 16.66ms.  Most 
LCDs take about 15ms complete the change from one color to another, so 
it's close.  Many LCDs take far *more* than 16ms (and thus far more than 
1/60th of a second), just as I said.

LCDs that claim "8ms" don't have that speed for changing from an abitrary 
color to another.  Those ratings are usually for white-to-black or 
black-to-white.  LCDs in the real world take 15ms to switch colors.
