Hi Jim,
Ill try................
Why the Best LCDs over the Best CRT?.............
1. Much, Much easier on the eye strain for critical color work all day.
2. Much higher contrast ratios and brightness peaks enable the notion to
softproof in a room without total darkness. Something nearly impossible
to do with an ARTISAN. Its contrast and brightness is so much lower
that is has to be the dominant light source by far.
3. Much less power consumption.
4. Warranties..........in general much better than the CRT manufacturers
LaCie-3year, Eizo-5year!
5. Now the jury is out on this one but they may well last longer than the
comparable CRT with regards to staying brighter(with good contrast)
longer. And we are
already hearing that many of the LCD makers will be implementing
backlight replacement programs. Ever got a CRT tube replaced?
6. The view angle and the color gamut is there now.
For more info feel free to contact me off list.
Cheers,
