I was just doing some work on my Beige G3 attached to an HP 98789A
17" monitor sitting next to a PC with a brand-new wide-screen LCD and
a NVidia DVI-output AGP card.
What struck me was how smooth the color rendition was with the CRT (I
think it's a Sony under the HP badge) compared to the LCD. Sure, the
LCD has more pixels and is very sharp, but the HP analog tube seems
to be much more pleasing to the eye.
Am I imagining this or have others noticed the same thing? Is this
another case of vinyl-vs-CD? I don't own an LCD TV and after this
experience am not tempted to get one.
I figure this is fair game for the list, as the G3 is over 10 years
old and the HP monitor much older than that.
Cheers,
Chuck
