Umm, Craig, I don't think your headaches are a result of a new TV...more likely, they're a result of an older Craig.

One of the things I dislike most about our HDTV, I have to wear my glasses or I get a headache.
The old TV never bothered me, but the new one really does give me headaches. However, with my glasses, the picture looks great.
Don't get me started on the menus though.
