what i liked about crt's was the toughness. you could slap, punch or hit the glass tube and the screen would be fine. there were so many pics of screens destroyed by nintendo wii controllers that would have bounced off a crt. even pointing out numbers on a spreadsheet can cause a modern screen to be damaged if it's not done carefully.
and of course all the cats miss the warm shelf they could sleep on while they watched their human work. :-)
In high school, a physics teacher once had a play on percussive maintenance. I call it impact encouragement. Or when using a hammer, linear encouragement, but I digress...
He held a glitchy TV by one side 6 inches in the air. Went on at length about the physics of it too. All sorts of BS, and then he dropped it!
#BAM!
Perfect picture after that! And I mean exemplary! Was weird. That set performed better than the others for years! At least two

A good plasma set can be a compromise and that is the family TV right now
OLED glows well, but I am really hoping we get LED for supermarket bright displays that are not so delicate or susceptible to burn in.
