The times I have seen what I think you are describing have been the result
of cheap and/or long video cables and not the monitor itself. At least I was
able to get both of my excellent Mitsubishi monitors to show the ghosting I
think you're describing when I tried too long a video cable. I would suggest
you try a better cable or a shorter cable before concluding this is the
monitor's problem.
