Do you use a CRT or an LCD on your main rig?

<--- having a hard time deciding which should be considered the "main rig," the A64 at work or the A64 at home :D


Work: LCD

NEC Multisync 19" CRT, high quality, far superior to any LCD I could get for double the price.

I don't think gaming on an LCD is THAT bad. :) I have an NEC LCD 17'' we bought a couple of weeks ago for our AMD XP machine. It's nice. :)

You've obviously never played on a quality LCD then ;)

Dual LCDs, and Yes.

i have though i used to want a 2005fpw till i played on some lcd's and widescreen for gaming isnt that good, but i do like how lcd's are easier on eyes and small and weight less than crt's.

I'm using a crappy 17" CRT right now, but I want to buy a 19" LCD. I'm just waiting for an awesome deal to come along for a good gaming LCD.
