I don't think they are "banned" but yes, a nice new lcd uses less power, causes less heat and produces no radiation. Is there soemthink I don't know about this particular brand of monitor or are you just saying to get away from all CRT monitors in general?

well i know there banned in businesses in the UK they are anyway not for personal use tho.
Reason they are bad for you is because they flicker really fast and can aparently damage your eyes after long periods of use also they're fat and ugly
this is CRT's in general

They are heavy and ugly looking...just like my last girlfriend.
And one time she fell and landed on my foot...broke it in 2 places.
Now you don't want that to happen to you Hermskii.
CRT's and heavy/ugly people are just plain dangerous.

It's a faze many tend to go thru in life it seems.
As for CRT's, I'll still use the ones I have until they are in dire need of being replaced (or made to by law).

It is the same yes only I've got without silver.
I think I'd like the black only more because my PC is black, my stereo is black and now my monitor is black
But it's looking good Scify, now I know that I've bought a good one if someone else have's it.
