A topic I thought would be interesting...

Please vote according to if you still actually use the monitor or TV.

I actually still have one tube monitor in use but it's not a primary monitor...

have 2 sony, triniton whatever flatscreen CRTs collecting dust

they whoop the FPs that replaced them in terms of SD channel pic quality...a trade off I was willing to accept before upgrading.

I still have back to back 32" tubes for multiplayer PS2 and Xbox. Also only use tubes for my home made arcade cabinets. 24" tube for my main computer - lots of video editing. LCDs for everything else.....

I'm still using my big ass 22" CRT on my gaming pc. It kicks the shit out of any LCD.

I dont know of any LCD's that can hold 120Hz refresh rate @1280x1024. LCD's are usually locked at 60Hz.

I have a 27" CRT Tv in my bedroom, it is over 10 years old. Got to love it.

I have a DLP for my main tv and I just upgrade to a 19 flat screen monitor this year from a 17" CRT.
