Do you still use CRT monitors?

[waggy]

My wife's 17inch CRT blew out like 2 years ago. got her a 17"lcd. found out i lvoed it so got myself a 22"widescreen lcd.

Though i loved my 19inch CRT. they still work and are sitting in the basemetn waiting for me to fix a computer to put with it heh.

 

[mwmorph]

I use a 19" Dell Trinitron for my primary pc.

 

[imported_Imp]

Nope. The TV in my room is a 20 year old CRT though.

 

[ConstipatedVigilante]

Still have some in the house, but they look terrible compared to my 20" LCD.

yes, still have a few at home. As they die I will replace them.

We have ten left in this office and we won't replace them until they die! We are fighting bitches off and have installed barbed wire fences around our inventory! Wish us luck!

Yup. The low response time and input lag is critical to my neffing experience.

Still have one to get rid of in the basement ... hopefully someone will buy it at our garage sale.

Yes. I can't get an lcd without making my wallet cringe in pain. They still cost too much. I currently have a 17" and a 19" connected to my home rigs.

In a corporate environment, good luck getting an lcd anytime soon for most of you. Where I used to work, there were a few new lcds popping up that quickly got confiscated for use by higher-ups, but the CRT's continued to be used until they croaked. Some are still going from teh win 3.1 days that are now connected to brand new desktops. My eyes never really recovered after working there. 50Hz FTL

There is one in use at home on an old Northwood P4 machine, but that CRT will probably be making its way out as an LCD attached to a dead P4 Prescott recently opened up (just waiting for me to come back home to do the switch).

 

[Vehemence]

Damn, no.

Edit: The monitor, not the cat.

My cat loves to sleep on the monitor also.

We replaced all of our CRTs a few years ago.

Everybody in our company has at least one 19" LCD.

Us in IT have dual 20"

 

[yhelothar]

I use a Sony 21" G520 FD Trinitron. I had a Dell 2001FP, but I gave it to my gf.

LCDs are better than your average CRT, but a really high end 21" CRT is hard to beat in contrast/colors.
My CRT is a bit fuzzier than my LCD, but the contrast and colors are absolutely gorgeous, with deep blacks.

 

[Skunkwourk]

yeah, samsung 19 inch. 997 something.

 

[Jugernot]

There are still a few floating around my work. We mostly used Dell 18" and 19" LCDs with HP 19" LCDs thrown in there.

 

[Baked]

No CRT in the house. Boo yeah! 2 LCD TVs and a LCD monitor.

 

[potato28]

Yes, but I hate them and avoid using them at all costs.

 

[troytime]

everyone at work has dual 24"s (nice ones, not the cheap ones)

i have two 21" CRTs at home

cheaper LCDs still don't compare to CRTs when it comes to color accuracy

 

[mundane]

I have a 21" sitting somewhere around here I've been meaning to trash/recycle/donate, but never get around to it.

 

[Molondo]

Still use one.

 

[sandorski]

Yup, plan on using it until it dies.

 

[Iron Woode]

I still regularly use my 20" Dell trinitron (D2026T) monitor made in 1997.

I will be getting a 20" LCD soon, but that will not be replacing my CRT.
