So, i got a chance to either get a CRT Sony G520 or an LCD Dell 2007wfp. The Dell costs twice as much, but it's brand new and comes with 3 years warranty. The Sony G520 is a few years old CRT, but in pretty good conditions. I'm ready to accept the LCD can't match CRT responsiveness, that the contrast won't be as good, but i can't accept over brightness or sub par color reproduction. My biggest problem is with the excessive luminosity from a few TN LCD's i tried. There were no brightness/contrast adjusts that could fix the problem. For short periods of time it was fine, 2 or 3 hours max, but staying in front of it for too long was a challenge.
Personally, i don't like the size of the G520, it's huge. Anyway, it's really not much of a problem since i have lots of space on the desk. Once again, the brightness is what worries me about picking up the 2007wfp. I really would like to hear suggestions on this regard and also hear from those who have tried the 2007wfp and a good quality CRT.
Thanks in advance.
