	I couldn't possibly hear my monitor over the cooling fans on my Dual
Athlon and the 5 scsi drives in the raid cabinet.  That and a LCD as
large as my 21" CRT would cost as much as my car is worth (that says
more about my car than the LCD).
	I have worked on LCD's and they are OK, but I love the real-estate my
21" gives me for the $ and I have no desk space issues.  I may add
another large (have a 19" sitting on the floor) CRT as a secondary if I
ever get a spare slot for another video card.
