Buying a monitor is sure not as interesting and fun as buying a cpu/motherboard or a graphics card. I began to doze off reading that CRT article. lol. I say screw it...when it comes time to buy a new monitor I am going to read the reviews and trust the reviewers lol. Don't get me wrong I love learning new technologies and researching different products but give me a break!! I'll pick up a copy of PC world...flip to the top ten monitor section...and say eenee meenee miinee MOE!!!!

Anyone agree/disagree?

Ya but if I let someone else pick a good monitor I'll like my computer more too....and I dont have to know every unit of measurement used to rate a monitor.

for recreational use, no you don't have to go through and spend hours researching monitors. but ask anyone that's using them for 8+ hours a day and the monitor is a life saver, well an eye saver.

hey flamethrower, you say you like studying crt's? well i want to buy a 19" flat screen crt and have asked peoples opinions before and they all say they recomend this brand or that brand(usually because they already own it). but i want a thought out opinion based on someone who has reasonably looked at all the sides. have you done this? and if so, what is your conclusion?

repeat after me, we are all individuals!
