    So my good old Samsung 17 inch CRT monitor is starting to die, it turns pink most of the time I use it now. So my quesition is, should I upgrade to an LCD or just buy another CRT? On top of designing websites I also do a lot of gaming so considering these facts I was perfectly happy with my samsung until it started acting up. I don't want to spend more than $200 on whatever I get. Who here has made the swtich, do you like the new LCD??
