It's a little claustrophobic for the first couple of weeks. And I miss the resolution when editing full-res photos.
For everything else, the LCD is better. The text quality difference is incredible (And note my 21" monitor is a Cornerstone 1600P, a $1500 professional-grade monitor driven by a high-end Radeon card, not some low-end cheapo. Superb for editing, good text quality) and of course I can now take it with me. For general use, the laptop display simply blows any CRT out of the water. For editing, the extra resolution of the CRT is nice, but I'll get that back as soon as I get around to buying a 24" panel for my desk. -Adam J. C.
