well, you seem to have ignored the fact that just about everyone who
has posted here has agreed with the proposition that LCDs beat CRTs
and that the figures for colour gamut for high end LCDs beat those for
high end CRTs, maybe it's you who has the eyesight problem ?

You'll have to add in all those who's job it is to set up TV cameras,
then, for the pictures you watch at home. CRTs are still the only real
option for this.


Why? A small and very rapidly diminishing number of people
watch on CRTs at home. The main manufacturers have ceased
production of them anyway (and some tube manufacturers have
gone bust due to the faster than expected cease in demand
for them).

I am sure an expensive and extremely well set up CRT can beat an average
production LCD, but so what? at the 150 quid a monitor level LCD wins
hands down on every count.
