So 6 years seems to be the limit before "something" will go wrong. I've had my 19" Hitachi CRT for about 4 years now with no signs of any trouble at all ... and it's been moved around a fair bit too .... That said, I've been eyeing off some of the 19" LCDs we just had come into stock at work .... prices are plumetting on LCDs right now so I might have to ask how much I can get on one for with staff discount. :)
