I use a 19" lcd monitor usually and a 27"widescreenLCD sometimes.
both formats work fine for me. Particularly that last.

lcd has longevity functionality and less room glare in my subjective opion
a far better deal for your money. but its not like a glass screen you have
to be careful when cleaning it. but I have never regretted the transition.
and it weighs nothing compared to the CRT

...and consumes much less power!

(I use a 19" Philips CRT, though)

I have about month now 19" widescreen LCD, before I have 19" CRT.
No problem with SH3
Take LCD and forget CRT

Right now they are selling LCD 19 inch for a song. I use a 19 inch LCD and I will never look back to a CRT. Not only that, you gain enough desk space with a LCD for a six pack and large pizza
