Have you tried to buy a computer lately? Chances are if you have you will
know that with the latest systems it's all about computer flat screens. When my
old CRT monitor died recently, I went out and replaced it with my first computer
flat screen and I'm just loving it. The differences are so great that I wonder
why I had waited so long to take the plunge.
The major difference I first noticed is the fantastic image quality in my new
LCD monitor. Compared to my old junky old CRT screen. It is not only sharper and
clearer, but it has a much better refresh rate. Another benefit I immediately
noticed is the eyestrain and subsequent headaches I used to get form my old CRT
computer screen have disappeared.
Another huge benefit of having a computer flat screen is the smaller size.
Computer flat screens are incredibly space efficient with a very small footprint
on my desk. My old CRT screen was the major piece of equipment on my desk, but
with my new LCD monitor there is suddenly heaps of room for all my other things.
In the early days of computer flat screens they were very expensive. Like any
new technology they also had technical issues like dead pixels and so on.
The modern technology has been improved enormously, and it like any
electronic item in a more mature stage of its life cycle has come down in price
significantly. These days a brand name computer flat screen is only marginally
more expensive than the same sized CRT monitor.
If you are putting together a new computer then there really isn't a good
reason not to get a computer flat screen. The money saved by choosing a CRT
monitor is very little, and you'll have a bulky piece of space hungry equipment
to contend with as a result. I would be surprised to see any CRT monitors for
sale in the market in the near future, and so they will have disappear forever.
