Im not asking what is better in terms of reviews, im asking which type of monitor you find better.

TFT's are good for graphics, great colors, sharp etc, and lets face it, they look sexy on any desk, a slim monitor is always appealing, but hell, Im happy with my CRT, the best monitor I'll ever have, and also, CRTs are better for motion, meaning, games animations etc.

I prefer my brand new 17" LG Flatron (Got it yesterday) to a LCD or something like, alot of games look terrible on them and they can be annoying. Though they aren't bad.

Well, I would generally say color seems to look better on CRT's, however, I recently got a newish Apple Display, and it feels top-notch. I think brand name matters a lot with monitors these days.
