lol, 22" in CRT was huge

22" widescreen LCD, not quite so. Feels just about average.

I'm not exactly sure why....probably has to do with the dimensions.

I would say a 22" Widescreen is equivalent to a 19" regular CRT.

26" and 28" seems to be easy on the eyes and not force me to sit 6 feet away from the screen. (like the 52 in the living room)

yuh damn right. My main reason from running from CRT is the light bill....not the performance because they still better than LCDs imo.

Hoss, last week I try to lift a 37" Sony Trinitron we have in work from back in the day...I swear, somebody replace the TV internals with enough raw materials to construct a lil 1 room annex oui.

Cant imagine how much power that beast does draw. Still cant beat the lifelike crisp and smooth picture reproduction.

LCD's, especially LED's are getting there, i'd say almost at the same level as the CRT's of yesteryear.

lol @ 1 room annex.

That's the second reason I've switched to LCDs.

They are TONS lighter on your back. Pun intended.

Moved many a CRT TV and Monitor much to the chagrin of my vertebrae.

Enough is enough.

LCD ftw
