Digital BW, The Print

One thing still seems to be true, though.  The price/performance for both CRT and LCD is getting better every day.  However, when comparing the price/performance of CRT to LCD, the CRT comes out way ahead.  One can buy a very nice 19" CRT for not too much money these days.  About $500 dollars will get you a nice 19" CRT AND calibrations tools.  (I am looking forward to the LCD being a match for the CRT's.  LCD's are really nice to use in many applications.)

I use an Apple LCD panel (calibrated) at home and do some retouching on 
files there. Then I bring them to work and look at them on my Lacie 22 
CRT (calibrated) and it is amazing what you can not see on a LCD. Very 
small details get lost on the LCD. I also get files from customers all 
the time and it never fails that I can tell who is working on a LCD 
compared to a CRT by how much retouch work "shows" on the my CRT. The 
LCDs look very nice but I don't think they are portraying the real 
world yet. I assume that is why Sony and Barco use CRT technology for 
high end accurate monitors.
