RE: Color gamut of CRT vs LCD Monitors

["Paul D. DeRocco" <pderocco@ix.netcom.com>]

It appears that the main difference in gamut is that a CRT has more
saturated blues. Of course, if the primary purpose is proofing prints, then
it doesn't matter, since you'll never get blues like that on a piece of
paper anyway.

The main thing (besides the price) that would steer me away from the Cinema
is the resolution: only 1600x1024. I'm pretty spoiled with my Nokia running
at 2048x1536. That's perhaps not so important for photo editing, but I also
use my computer for other things, like CAD, and love to have lots of stuff
on my screen at once.
