Submarining text on scrollling?

Hello,

On my shiny new MacBook, I'm noticing that when I scroll webpages, text virtually disappears until the scroll stops. It's really noticeable on Apple Discussions pages, actually.

My cinema display doesn't do it, but I haven't had a laptop since my PowerBook 160 -- which did it because of the ol' passive matrix display. Should the MacBook? Do you see the same thing?

Thanks for any advice

I can confirm what PauloLemos has posted, the problem for me is both in OSX and Windows XP Home/Professional/Media. It looks to me that it is the speed of the LCD display refresh time.
