We have been replacing tube monitors with solid state monitors at

work or for painting cameras or doing film transfers. On top of this
comes an announcement by Sony that they will stop making Trinitrons
soon. If that's true I don't know what they are going to offer to
replace Class A and Class B broadcast monitors. On top of this the new
plasma displays burn faster than tubes. We have to go around turning
them off in unused control rooms. New technology is not always better.

We have discussed this a few times on the list and in spite of our best
efforts, there are those who will doggedly maintain otherwise. I now
have in my possession several very nice graphics-grade 20+" CRT monitors
in beautiful condition that were given to me by users who "upgraded" to
new technology... I'm all for it!
OTOH the difference in power consumption for a mid-to-large size office
can be quite significant...
