If you were going to spend money on a new monitor, what would you buy? A LCD or CRT?
If you vote in this poll, please post your reasons for choice. Thank you.

B) i'd get an lcd cuz its lightweight and looks slick. ghosting on 16ms nec monitors is not an issue.

I chose the CRT becouse LCD's are pure shit when it comes to gaming, longevity, and price. ;)

LCD are pure shit for gaming. Trust me, i have 2 19" big mofo monitors and would never exchange them for a lcd. Look what shinedown said, every time you move you pretty much have to adjust the lcd for proper viewing, definately not a gamers monitor. Do what you want, but i would rather pay for a cheap big mama, rather than a expensive p.o.s that you'll regret...

go with the CRT. LCD is nice but they can also burn out and lose pixels. for playing tacops you want a CRT simply cause ur gonna want a great picture all times and last longer. LCDs wouldnt last 6 months with me.

Here is a quote from PC Reveiw magazine.

QUOTE
Flat Panel vs. CRT Monitors

As Flat Panels continue to drop in price, consumers have to choose between space-saving aesthetics or better-priced screen quality.

If space and aesthetics are important to you, then a flat panel is the way to go. Compared to CRT displays they use very little power, emit less heat and radiation, take up a smaller amount of space and are easy on the eyes.

If space is not an issue, it's probably better to get a good quality 19" CRT monitor than an entry-level 15" flat panel. As well, if you use your computer a lot for graphics and games, a CRT offers a sharper and more detailed display.

No doubt CRT's are inferior. Look in the TV world what gets better picture, a big screen or a big screen LCD... Go ask a TV guy. I gotta 53 Sony Wega LCD backlit and its the best fucken picture ive ever seen.

the only people who talk shit about lcd's are the ones who got one for 100 bucks, some unknown brand. or the fuckers who cant afford them.
