Poll - LCD or CRT monitor

Posted By Wesley Higgins
Hi,

My 19" CRT monitor is acting up and it may be time to get a
new monitor, I have looked at Astro images on both types of monitors (LCD and CRT) and there is a difference in the contrast and color of an image between the two.
My question put as sort of an informal poll is what type of monitor (LCD or CRT) are the people in this forum using to view the images here, the results will help me to decide which monitor to purchase.

Thanks and Clear & Steady Skies,
