But do they give as good a picture? I've got a Consumer Reports magazine from a few years back, back when direct-view CRTs, LCD, and plasma coexisted in showrooms. None of the flat-panels they reviewed, at any price, came close to the Sony Wega CRTs in picture quality.

I think the best buy today is a Sony Wega CRT off Craigslist for 1/10 the original price. I suspect it'll outlive many of the flat panels, too.
