The advantages to upgrading your monitor, part 2

[general_radix]

'twas playing Rubicon earlier, and I think the differences in experience between my old monitor and the new one can be summed up thusly:

CRT: incredibly dark even with the brightness jacked up, the internal settings set to "really light" or so, and my room's lights turned off.

LCD: I can actually see things by default; also, HUD text is somewhat sharper. "Honk If You're An Underpaid Cyborg" was much easier to navigate this time.

I try to go with this, too, but working in graphic design I have to upgrade hardware more often that I'd like. Also, the planned obsolescence annoys me to no end. At least I was able to give my old phone to my mother.
