No, you are not going out on a limb. My boy Kinon is like that little brown
pile you step on out in the front lawn that you try to scrape off, but there
is always some rotten smell that still lingers. Go with your instincts and
use what works for you. You are *NOT* going to find an LCD that will even
come close to the accuracy of CRT. Best bet is to save your money by
getting a CRT and put that towards a lens or something more useful. LCDs
will improve in the next 5-years. Buy one when they get them working
better.

LOL! You got it! Smart man.
