I took a USB drive with some photos to Bug, a local computer chain.
The only CRT they had, a Viewpro 20" made much better pictures than
even their most expensive LCD. That convinced me: I'll save some money
and trade desktop space for a CRT when I next buy. The current LCD's
are good compared to the old, but CRT's are still much better for
photos.

Note, for reading text I do prefer my laptops LCD to the desktop's
CRT. But for photos it won't do.
