My 21" is a Sony G520 and it is sweet.  Heck, at 2048x1536 it does 75Hz (above general 'eye irritation' and far above LCDs).  Photonic emission is the way that CRT works and is not good for your eyes, but the companies making LCDs have to work harder to make it worthwhile to do the upgrade.

I'm sorry, nakamuram, LCDs capable of 2048X1536+ are not affordable. Find me one by a reputable manufacturer (about $750) and I'll purchase it!!!  Good luck with your mission.  This reply will self-destruct in five seconds. :)

ETA: Real good luck as I can't find one under $2000.  Best o' luck bud.  Suckers...

Dell 3007WFP 30"widescreen  LCD.  Resolution of 2560x1600, 11 millisecond refresh, 4 USB ports, vertical adjustment (tell me when you can get that on a CRT), 9 in 2 card reader.

About $1500 US now.

If you can stand "only" 1920x1200, you can get a Dell 24" widescreen with DVI, VGA, Composite, component and S-video inputs, 4 USB ports, the card reader, 6 millisecond refresh, and so on for around  $750 US now.

Less than a year ago, the 24" Dell widescreen (with not as many features) cost around $1100.

By the by, 75 Hz is 13.3 millisecond redraw. so LCDs exceed it easily now.

While I'm a CRT man right now, I should point out that I haven't seen any inexpensive high-resolution wide-screen (16:10) CRTs.  I think a high-res wide-screen display is the way to go  for the future. 

Also, remember that a 22" CRT really has a viewable area of only 20", while a 21" LCD has a viewable area of 21".  All they need to do is to improve the contrast (deeper blacks) and response times (for gaming).
