Argh! Speaking of counter-monkey salesdroid terminology...
You do know that there are "perfectly-flat" CRT technologies, right? ( I
have a few of my own, but have seen examples from 15" up to [at least]
22".)[1] And generally, the flatscreen CRTs (in my experience) are actually
a bit heavier than a similar-sized "bubblevision" tubes (that's what we
call older monitors). I suppose that could be because we only handle
higher-quality monitors, however...
"Flat-screen" != "LCD" or "TFT".
Well, I guess I just joined the ranks with "Grumpy Ol' Fred"... ;-)

[1] Come to think of it, my Tekky 'scope has a "flat-screen" too!!!
:-P
