I've never really liked LCD's

I like CRT's, and they last FOREVER.
1) I've had 2 CRT's die in my lifetimeI've replaced 2 LCD's in the last 2 months at work. Both were replaced for free because they were less than 2 months old, but still.

2) Basically, The only reason I can think of to get an LCD is if you need the space badly... If your desk is against the wall, pull the desk out a little and push the monitor back and you shouldnt lose to much space.

3) 17' or 21' ... Ford Tempo vs Chevy Vett ... is it really that hard of a choice? =)
