[DUG] Screen sizes :-)

[Maurice Butler]

Hi,

The other advantage of tritron is that for photgraphic editing you can
calibrate to have accurate colours - lcd is limited in its colour depth so
the colours on the screen are not close enough for professional work

They weigh a ton also (well, about 25kg each).  Actually a flat panel is 
only about twice as energy efficient as a CRT.  However flat panels 
don't give as much radiation.  However I am recycling I guess, as 
otherwise the monitors would probably go into a land fill - I don't know 
how much energy goes into producing a flat panel either.  There is a lot 
to consider if you try to be green ;-).
