I've had the white one put in by Frank Gruendel of this list (Tim refers to
him; see <http://www.pda-soft.de/>)and I'm happier than a cat with two
tails, as they say.  I admit I still miss the green glow, but I have a Newt
with its original green still intact for when I get nostalgic.  I went for
the white because I hoped for slightly better contrast -- important now that
my eyes aren't what they used to be.  I've been happy with the choice.  Try
to look at one first, to be sure you like it.


 
Shalom.
