Default Who's still making CRTs?

Thanks for the info, although I was hoping to get specific manufacturer
info. I'm a pro photographer and often do color correction on digital
images, and I still haven't found an affordable LCD monitor that can
match my CRT's color gamut. I use one for color correction, and
have two others in reserve, just so I can outlast this LCD nonsense


Well, some of us are not pro photographers or into desk top publishing etc
:-) and for us, LCD monitors are great. Negligible radiation, little heat,
low power consumption, sharp, consistant image, small desktop footprint etc
etc. If it is 'nonsense' then how can the huge uptake of the technology be
explained? Condemning a technology on its lack of suitability for a niche
market is 'nonsense' IMO.

long enough for LED technology to hit the streets.


What makes you think LED technology won't have drawbacks of its own? I can't
see it being much better for your purposes than LCD TBH. I stand to be
corrected of course :-)
