[thelist] [ot] what is Color Temperature ?

[Eduardo Dominguez]

I have heard that term before and to be honest never understood
it and never had the will to find out what it is.

But then, yesterday, I complained to a coworker about some ocasional
headaches I get after long sessions with my PC.

He suggested, lowering the monitors color temperature. Nor only does
the image in my monitor look more crisp it is more easy on my eyes.
I also didnt know that monitors had that setting.

Can anyone explain me what Color Temperature is and what difference
it made when I changed that setting in my monitor ?

Thanks in advance! :)
