I need to replace my Samsung crt monitor.
I went to the store to look, but not too many crt monitors left.
The salesperson tells me monitors are now called displays.
I said I didn't know. Also he says crt is OUT and lcd flat is in.
So I read on the internet, I find the new lcd displays are not as good
as the old crt monitors. Sort of like how it was when digital cameras
first came out (not anywhere near as good as film quaility)
I read the lcd displays are getting better, but still have a long long way
to
go to match a crt for contrast, speed, and things like consistent picture
quality throughout the whole screen area. Is this right ?
I will bet that most people who now have a new lcd display,
at one time had the old crt monitors. That is why I post this
question here. Are lcd displays worth buying right now ?
Or should I just try to get one or the last reamining crt monitors
and wait until the lcd display has matured some.?
I don't know what is best, so I ask you for comments.
Thanks to all
Mike
