Wow. I'm impressed that you were crazy enough to come back and post this detailed review that no one else will ever read.

> and no motion blur which makes them sharper any time you view a moving image (yep I'm aware that you people don't understand this)

I understand they have motion blur. That wasn't my original point.

CRT made me sick. I was forced to use them for years and they fucked my eyesight. LCD resolved that issue.

Absolute zero fucks given to all of your points here. I have to use monitors for work and need something that doesn't torture my eyeballs. CRT is hell if I need to stare at it all day.

> You're a fucking dumbass.

No amount of autistic screeching bullshit will ever convince me to go back to using a CRT for daily work. Cheers.

Well, ironically CRT has less blur than LCD in practice unless you only ever look at still images. Both strain my eyes but CRTs would have much better focus by now if they kept on being developed. And as I said and you didn't understand, flicker on CRTs can be reduced by increasing to whatever rate you want, even 200Hz (although 85Hz should be enough) on a cheap 1999 model I have, and most LEDs in light bulbs and absolutely any appliance etc are already flickering at 120Hz at most, so you're basically just picking and choosing what things you think affect you.
