  Good question, one that's going to get a lot of answers. Here's mine...

The black on white display would be far more legible than a color display.  I 
have used a couple of rigs with colored displays - result: tired eyes about 
6-7 hours into a 'test. 

Younger eyes, or less myopic eyes, might do better over the same or a longer 
period of time. But my eyes are as old as the rest of me; 9 years older than 
dirt; and they still work well enough to let me drive at night. I prefer to 
keep them that way. 

Besides; a black on white display may give TT a bit extra they can put into 
super low noise RF/IF amplifiers. Lowering the noise floor and making it that 
much easier to copy Zero Zed Zero Zed Zed's  100 Watts to a GAP Voyager on 
160.
