They can often be repaired, and often inexpensively.
But with new monitors being pretty competitively priced, you might
want to consider just replacing it. A good, modern 17" to 20"
flatscreen will outperform most CRTs under $1000, takes up less desk
space, uses less power, is easier on the eyes, and proves to be more
stable on calibration too. Even the Apple Cinema Display 20", one of
the best monitors in the class, is just $799 retail list and you can
often get a discount off that price. (The Apple display is fully
compatible with both Mac OS and Windows systems, but you might need
to replace your display adapter card for a DVI compatible model.)
