I use a Samsung 913T LCD monitor with a DVT feed from a Matrox
Millennium G550 in a WinTel system  or with a G4 mac and have been very
well satisfied. High end CRT monitors may have a bit of an edge in
absolute accuracy in rendering color but considering that one can never
achieve an absolute match between screen and print that may be a tilting
at windmills argument. For B&W LCDs function as well as anything in my
limited experience. All monitors, CRT or LCD, need to be tweaked with a
profiling system if you are going to get the best image possible.
Considering footprint, weight, heat generation etc I would choose LCD
over CRT any day and not look back. "Chacon a son gout..."
