HI Craig,

This sounds like a possible Hardware issue. I have a slighly older 
version of your MacBook Pro with the same config. This never happens and 
I work in FM Pro 11 advanced a great deal. If you have an apple store 
near by make an appointment at the Genius bar and let them run some 
diags on the computer.

Hope this helps.

Wondering if this is just me or are others 'seeing' something similar. I've also noticed when working in layout mode that I can see the text gradually get fuzzier until it gets selected at which time the selected text gets sharper. In any case it usually means a limited working time in any layout mode before it all goes 'greasy'. If anyone wants the screen shot I can send off-line.
