LCDs are only too contrasty if you let them be. It takes a bit of time  
to adjust to a new display type, but if you control the display and  
the ambient lighting appropriately an LCD will show you a good  
representation of your image. In face, they are sharper than CRTs,  
especially old CRTs, and don't flicker, so they cause less eye  
fatigue, as long as you calibrate them so that they don't cause glare.
