Would you like to borrow my glasses?
No thanks, they apparenly aren't working very well.
I guess youre not up on the curious things the eye & brain do with
colour perception.
No I'm up on the fact that, psychovisual phenomena aside, you can't do
greyscale without red. I'm also up on the fact that since the OP is
already having to put up with the loss of red and obviously isn't happy
with it, we can assume that the loss of red is quite noticeable and
annoying. Having used a monitor on the past where the red was very weak I
have some understanding of what that's like.
Can it be used without red? Sure, as the OP already knows and is
apparently unhappily doing now. What was asked was can grayscale be done.
The answer is, no, it won't work surprisingly well, he'll just have to
put up with no red on the backup machine.
