I need to get a new monitor. I’m RMA’ing my current 20.1 inch 1600 x 1200 ViewSonic VP201B, but I think I’m going to pick up another one in the mean time and then run dual monitors.
I’m a career designer, so color accuracy is important, but I have a full time corporate job that doesn’t leave a ton of time for freelance work, so it isn’t a huge deal - just a good thing. My home machine is often just used for gaming to relieve stress.
My understanding is that CRTs offer excellent color accuracy, absolutely no ghosting ever, and are generally quite good - but they are obviously bigger. What am I missing? Other than the style and size of LCDs, do they have anything at all going for them?
If CRTs are indeed a good idea, as I suspect, what would a good monitor for me be? I want it to run very well at 1600 x 1200, and be good for gaming and have good color accuracy for the random freelance jobs I accept, those are my needs. 
Cheers.
