I'm defying all of the rules of proper LCD usage (I use a 17" LCD at work for PHOTOSHOP (OMGWTF?!), 3d Viz, and CAD) because an LCD doesn't make my eyes feel like they are dying.


At work we're officially 5 years behind the rest of the universe, so it was a pretty big deal last month when I got to replace all the old CRTs with LCD 17s. Bunch of Sonys, ran us $273 per. They're perfectly passable for games, I've been using one as my main monitor at work and home for years now. I've long held that monitors are better investments than other parts of the computer, because even if you're buying new machines every year or every other year a good monitor can still last you 10 years.
