I have both screens in front of me, on twin machines (as I said,
absolutely identical, a few serial numbers apart). I haven't felt
any noticeable difference.
But I haven't measured. I will try (one of these days) to actually
time Insight window operations on both machines.
However, if there is any difference, we won't know the cause as there
are several layer that are different. The Tcl system dependent part,
the window systems, the operating systems.
