I have been reading the various posts concerning LCD monitors, and from reading them, as well as numerous magazines on the subject, I was curious as to why manufacturers stopped making CRT monitors and switched to the inferior LCD monitors?
I say inferior because I have never seen or read about any LCD monitor that could compete with a CRT monitor. CRT monitors don’t need response times, they can be viewed at any angle, they are cheaper, and they display 16.7 million colors.
My monitor is a 21inch Trinitron that is about 8 years old. I don’t know how long it will last, but CRT’s outlive most LCD monitors too, and when this one dies, I dread having to choose an LCD monitor that I know won’t compare to this Trinitron.
Why did they stop making CRT monitors when there is obviously a large graphics market for them? I was just wondering if anyone knew…?
