Recently My 21' Fujitsu Siemens MCM 212V Monitor went dead. Luckily I had some spare cash from working last vacation, so I went out and bought a 19' AMW X1900DS LCD monitor. Apart from the evident contrast ( the old 21' crt was 6 years old ) between the two, the CRT weighing 26 kilos while the LCD only about 4... what other differences are there? I personnaly, after using the new LCD for a couple of weeks find it to be much more clearer and brighter. The viewing angle is not a problem, my room being small as it is, and the visible surface is as big is, if not even bigger, than the CRT's. Also, I noticed that HD movies look much greater on the new one. What do you prefer? CRT or LCD? And why?

I prefer LCD because when I stay too long working on my P.C. I have problems with my eyes because of this old CRT. I feel my eyes tired and sometimes when I stay too lung they hurt.

Ah yes, I've noticed that too. I don't feel tired anymore after using my PC with this LCD now. Radiation levels are much more lower on LCD's than they are on CRT monitors.
