Anyway, it looked more hazy/dusty to me thank smoky, which seemed fairly appropriate for a Pacific Island base before a/c was commonplace.

In any case, I really don't like the colors. I have a DVI-based LCD, which handles "true" colors quite accurately, and it's very obviously the palette chosen for that room was presuming the post-processing filter in place. The phone, for example, is especially irritating. The detailing on the body is just SO high contrast without the filter blurring it, it looks rather unrealistic.

True, the older version did add a certain atmosphere to the office. Reminded me alot of those film-noire "private eye" movies, with the guy sitting at his desk with a trenchcoat and puffin' away in the darkness.
