Yeah CRT monitors take a lot of juice, it's one of the reasons flat panels

I don't like the way LCD/flat panel monitors look. The image isn't as
sharp

I'd have to disagree on this, if there is anything that is a
clear win for LCD, it is image sharpness... it doesn't get
any sharper than having individual pixel representation.
This can be offset in perception if the particular LCD has
poor contrast but it is still just as "sharp", though not as
vibrant.

I wonder if Doc is running his LCD at a non-native resolution...

and loses brightness unless you're sitting dead-center in front
of them, even the models that supposedly have a wider viewing angle.

True but it's a computer monitor, how many positions do you
really need to be in while viewing it?
