Signing to the choir? Like they can't hear? Must make a neat sound.

Before you guys get all misty-eyed on CRTs, they really _do_ suck on
so many levels. Geometry is mediocre along with convergence, they
react to magnetic fields - and rearly in a good way. They drift like a
balloon in the wind. They have those wonderful high voltages inside to
attract dust. And heavy and bulky and --- good riddance.

And CRT's still have the best image quality around. I have a widescreen
flat 
32" Phillips HDTV and the geometry and convergence are perfect. When my 
videophile friends want to see what reference HD and DVD should look like 
they come to my place. Paid $1800 for it at the time and made damn sure
was 
worth it. Heavy as hell and small picture but it's good enough.
collect dust? Thay last for 20-30 years..all electronics collect dust
there 
is nothing you can do about it. Take the lid off every few years and blow
it 
out if your so worried about it.
