Yep..high voltage,particle emission, rf spurious emission, hot filaments,convergance and focus degradation, refresh flicker..and that's when the friggen things are working normal. Get that LCD working.

But they rock for gaming. I may be blind in 10 years, but for now, I can frag with the best of them :p

I hate all the loud high-pitched whistles that most people either can't or don't know they do hear.

I could tell you which CRT monitor (there are four - except one because I can't hear it) is turned on at any given moment in my apartment or which TV (there are five) is turned on. There's a bunch of other stuff that contributes to the 'high-band chaos' that I hear.

Lucky SOB with an LCD - which still may or may not emit a high-pitched noise.

I can hear harmonics from the flyback highvoltage x-former in crt devices. Sounds like a bat chirping and fluttering about.

I can hear the sound of one hand clapping, while a tree falls in the woods with no one around. :)
