Recently My 21' Fujitsu Siemens MCM 212V Monitor went dead.
Luckily I had some spare cash from working last vacation, so I went out and bought a 19' AMW X1900DS LCD monitor.
Apart from the evident contrast ( the old 21' crt was 6 years old ) between the two, the CRT weighing 26 kilos while the LCD only about 4... what other differences are there?I personnaly, after using the new LCD for a couple of weeks find it to be much more clearer and brighter. The viewing angle is not a problem, my room being small as it is, and the visible surface is as big is, if not even bigger, than the CRT's.
Also, I noticed that HD movies look much greater on the new one.
What do you prefer? CRT or LCD? And why?

I prefer CRT. I don't like LCD at all.
LCD can offer better resolution, but it's all blur and colors don't seems to be very accuracy.
If you have space to put a CRT I think is the best option.

Yes Sony is a good manufacturer, both LCD's and other products.
When I got my LCD, I really wanted one as big as my last monitor, so I got this 19' AMW.
I could have settled for something smaller and with a little renown... But anyway I have a 3 year warranty on it so I'm not all that worried. :)
