Well actually, I never said I preferred them. So you got that wrong too.

I think the fact that you prefer CRT rests the case for everyone and all
time.
Get an LCD, you weirdo.

Ill guess a Wallaby is Kangaroo of sort?  Hehe, real good one mate ;)  not..

You act as if the CRT is the pox of humanity.  The steady flicker of
flourecent lamps or the UV rays that occur naturally, smog smoke and on and
on each cause more eye strain than any correctly configured high refresh
CRT.

So you like your LCD.  Who really cares, I don't cause next year when I do
go with an LCD which will cost me half as much for twice the perf as your
POS I'll just sit back and laugh at you.  When I can get a LCD of similar
size and performance to my 22" CRT then Ill likely go that route.  Till then
take your useless propaganda and shove it squarely up your arse.

BTW I use many types of displays daily both LCD and CRT and I dont disagree
with your general assesment of LCDs, right up till you turn into a raving
fool.

At no time was I "childish" in my previous response soooo...

PLONK ..l..

So I was wrong to assume you prefer LCDs?  You actually prefer CRTs?  Why is
that exactly?

I prefer my 22" CTR because it's bigger. My 17" LCD, while smaller, is
still more than adequate for ***.

So you have no preference for either - you just care about size?

No such thing as a "correctly configured" CRT, matey.
You think just because you've adjusted the refresh rate to just beyond the
visible that it isn't refreshing ?
Sorry, but you have absolutely no understanding of the workings of the
visual cortex - I suggest you go and read some books.

Well I know I certainly do.
And millions of other LCD users feel the same way about theirs.

 I don't cause next year when I do

Well, you're just gunna have to put up with another year of eyestrain on the
road to an opthalmic prescription and shi'ite viewing/tough document-reading
for another year then, aren't you .... eh ?

  When I can get a LCD of similar

A 1,500lb 22" CRT sack of shi'ite has the same viewable area as a 20" LCD.

Till then

The only fools around are the ones who think CRT's are acceptable viewing.

The tone of the response may not have been childish - but lying to "justify"
that bullshi'ite is the sort of thing you should have given up at seven y-o.

That's true for some of them, but there are 16ms panels coming onto the
market with true color. The Dell FP2001 20" is one of them, it uses an
LG-Phillips LCD. There's a review at
http://www.racesimcentral.net/'re interested.

I worked in a computer shop and you need to invest some 3 to 4 times more
for a LCD to have the qualities you just mentioned, especialy color quality.

I'd say you probably never seen a good CRT. My eyes don't hurt even after
