Jeff, Are you using sub-pixel aliasing that was set up for one display device, on a different display device? My understanding of subpixel aliasing is that it uses knowledge of the location of the color bars within each pixel. Different display devices (partic, LCDs) use different arrangements of color bars: e.g. horizontal or vertical bars, rgb or bgr ordering. What happens if you swap display devices?
