Trufax, flat panel is the bomb. I do enjoy the sound of the CRT hitting that fly-back transformer and the rush of electrons being shot at the screen.

I used to use x2 CRT's, it worked great but I'm look at x2 LCD by summer if all goes well. The kids get the CRT's.

Its a really nice fit on the desk, and nowhere near as heavy as the 19" CRT I had. One of the 'coolest' things, though, is the DVI input I'm using. The difference between this, and the VGA I had on it first is quite noticable...

The usable real estate on a wide monitor just works better. the whole 4:3 thing needs be done away with.

A square is also a rectangle.

Sorry, I should have said technically he's JUST a rectangle.
