Re: [Digital BW] Re: LCD vs. CRT

With its lower resolution, greater power consumption, radiation, size etc.
My point is there is a set of tradeoffs in considering this question but
comparing a good CRT with a cheap/poor LCD is inappropriate.  Yes a good LCD
costs more than a good CRT (with the price gap closing) but compare a
quality CRT with a quality LCD.  My 23in Apple CD display has had absolutely
no problems for the last year and half.  If it had one dead pixel I would
have sent it back to the supplier.  Oh and I can't describe how good it is
to have the large 16:9 space to work with.
