Yes. I just wanted to point out to anyone reading this that it does need to be worked around. It's still a neat little trick. There is that little flash as Craig pointed out, but on my system it's only barely noticeable. My home pc is faster than this one, and I'm going to check it out there. It should be even less noticeable.
