If it affects ur eye, better not continue using a CRT and purchase a LCD.

Or the alternative is not to use ur computer anymore

CRT screens reflect light easily, so any ambient light would go into your eyes and strain it. the only real weakness for LCDs were ghosting and lower contrast ratio, but these two areas have been much improved over the past few yrs, and aren't too diff from CRTs from a human eye perspective.

OFCOZ LCD MAN. CRT is old tech, try to catch up to the world.

, n lcd gives out much less rays, save power n use less space n makes space on the desk

I have a 17inch BENQ FP71G+ LCD monitor. It's great =)

The price of LCDs are very affordable now, so i guess most people would have a LCD.

If you're a hardcore gamer then you'll use a CRT. Otherwise LCD is the way to go. It's not that expensive anymore and it will save on desk space.
