I have to admit that I've been living under a rock the last few years
as far as technology is concerned. I bought my last monitor (an LCD)
about 4 or 5 years ago, and at that time CRT was still king. I noted
about 2 years ago that the selection of CRT monitors on store shelves
had shrunk considerably, but getting one still was not a problem. Now,
a person has to go out of their way to get one.
