    I need to buy a new monitor, I have had a 17" CRT for years now, and am looking into a CRT, what are the advantages and disadvantages of both. I want to here from people that have used both, and what they think. Also a good place to find a cheap but good 17" CRT/LCD.

    Thanks

    LCD:
    + sharper image
    + less deskspace in use by the monitor
    + looks cooler

    CRT:
    + better for games, unless you buy a 8ms or 12ms responsetime LCD
    + cheaper
    + because it's cheaper it gives more value for money.
