asciilifeform: you can use them in a sunlit room, for instance.
decimation: but it seems that our 'upgraded' lcd displays lack what we had in the past

asciilifeform: decimation: 'eizo' and 'barco' make almost usable lcds, for those applications

Knot_Yeti: decimation: pixel density tho
decimation: I suspect that trinitrons are still in use for medical applications where resolution and contrast are critical
RagnarDanneskjol: mircea_popescu - he went to bed - was asking me how to proceed, but I was unavail. I'll invite him again tomorrow

decimation: asciilifeform: would not want to breathe that smoke...
mircea_popescu: a crt you can adjust to be as unluminous as you'd like. a lcd, no. has a minimum.
