Is anyone experiencing problems with the monitors of Power Mac 5200
and 5300? Ocassionally the screen colors would change to a darker
shade while you are working. One PM5200 's screen changed from
white to blue. On the PowerMac 5300 the color keeps changing from a
white window to a yellowish white window. It usually happens after
the computer has been turned on for some time but not too long.

I have experienced a few problems with the new PowerMac 5200 and
5300 computers. A common problem is the monitor problem and another
is the problem of booting up. I had to replace 2 of the hard drives
out of the 24 new machines we purchased recently. Currently,
another computer has difficulty booting up. I have to repeat booting
it up for 5 minutes before I finally succeed. Another annoying
problem is when certain key combinations ( pressed by mistake)
brings up a small window with the > and the only way to get out is
to restart or to turn the switch to off. I would appreciate it if
anyone can offer any advice.
