Art, Graphics, Games = CRT. For Servers, workstations (business), and needed space = LCD.
At home I have two 21" CRTs (^_^) $50 a piece from the Government Surplus.

LCD is kinder to the eyes but if you're into gaming or anything that required graphics to be resized as per necessary, and of course budget, then go with normal monitors.

I use a normal monitor or a CRT as you would call it. It is said and is a proven fact that CRTs give better graphics than the LCDs. They tested that theory in games. The LCDs tend to tear and give lines on the screen... and also the CRTs just generally look a little better. Oh, I use a AOC 19" flat front.

right now since im on vacation i stole dad's brand new Lacie 19 inch electron19blueIV that uses flat Mitsubishi tube i think...its one of them fancy small grain monitors especially designed for digital photo editing..for myself im stuck with a 17 inch dell monitor that i got for free ^-^;; I like tube over LCD because of smaller grain, faster refresh, no distortion of colors when viewed not exatly at right angle (although LCD's came a long way to fight that now) and ive read a lot that tubes display colors a little better for digital photography and stuff like that :P

If you care about your electricity bill and desktop space, LCD. If you care about picture quality, motion video, and color reproduction, CRT. That being said, you can get a top of the line CRT for far less than a top of the line LCD right now since LCD is where everyone sees the future going. The quality just isn't there yet for color repro et all.

I use a big honkin' Sun 21" CRT that I bought off-lease for next to nothing. I like it especially during the winter since it keeps the room nice and warm.
It takes about 5 minutes to warm up and show a really sharp image, it is a bit blurred until that time, probably due to age. The image occasionally jumps a few pixels left or right, but if I smack the side of the monitor it goes back. Heh. That's probably not good but I can't remember the last time it happened actually.
When it ever dies, I will probably find another one. I love it because it has two video inputs, switchable on the front, so I don't need a KVM (my other puter on it is an Amiga 4000t, KVM wouldn't work anyway).

I have an old school Hitachi Superscan Elite 751.... I'm waiting to see the thin CRTs. Not as thin as an LCD, but still pretty thin, and the quality of a CRT.

I don't understand what people mean by saying that CRTs are better for viewing graphics. A flat-panel LCD monitor using DVI display not only has a sharper and clearer image, but is able to do some sub-pixel rendering for an even higher-quality display than a CRT running at the same resolution.
There is absolutely no category where CRT is better, other than price.

Aha! That's where you're wrong!
CRTs are better at:
* holding down papers
* heating enclosed spaces (see my post)
* attracting dust with static
* sucking down power
* making interesting noises when thrown out of high places
* being less expensive than LCDs :-)
* making UPS money when you pay to ship one :-(*edit* I typed "LCD displays". I must like recursion.
