With the increased high prices I have almost completed resorted to buying used. I can usually find great buys at amazon, ebay, or half. I seldom pay more than $5.

True it might be better to use a LCD. But I have saved a lot money as of lately by acquiring CRTs that would have been trashed.
For instance, my company did some downsizing in the past few years. This means they had extra CRTs that they were going to trash. I took some home.
Isn't it better that I use used CRTs that still have life rather than buying a new LCD?
You know... RFC is finger licking good.
