Quote - Gamut/color depth is the reason to stick with a CRT. If your just doing web work well maybe the LCD's are better for you.
Well, I play FPS and MMORPGs a fair bit. While I'm not at the high end for power-gaming, I do spring for the better video cards when I get a machine, and I do like the eye candy when playing those games. And my LCD is the monitor of choice. And I have a selection of good CRTs I could choose from if I wanted.
So it's not just doing web-work or word processing.
Sure, if you want to do really precision work you might decide you need a CRT, but quite honestly the number of people who really need that precision is quite small compared to the number of people who flatter themselves and think they need it (or more importantly, think they can see the difference).
