Greetings, I'm not sure what kind of problem this is, so I thought I'd start
with the pcbuild folks.  The problem is difficult to describe, but the best
way I can think of to describe it is that images on my monitor screen are
undulating just slightly---it makes it look like heat waves or something.
It's a side to side motion that is so faint that I thought it was just me
bleary eyed from so much school work, and looking at the screen too much,
but my housemate can see it as well, so I'm sure this is real.

I have an IBM Aptiva, 300 mhz, with 160 mg RAM, and a 6.4 g hard drive.
Normally, I'd just take it down to my computer shop, but I can't afford to
give up the machine for a week in the middle of summer quarter, so I'm
trying to hold out until mid August.  I'm just wondering what the worst
could be, and am I being foolish not to get into the shop sooner?

What do you all think?

TIA,
