When you scan across a DLP image, some people see little flashes of the color spectrum. It's a result of the way DLP works. It uses a color wheel spinning in front of a light reflected off a mirror, which causes a kind of latency that some people's eyes are sensitive to. Go to Circuit City or whatever, find a DLP, stand in front of it, and scan your eyes from left to right across the screen at various speeds as a video is playing (and try to ignore the strange looks people are giving you).

DLP technology is improving, which has reduced the problem somewhat. However, it's still there. Check out this thread:
