I have.  The Samsung 213T LCD monitor is the best monitor I have ever used, 
bar none.  Accurate, bright, easy to calibrate.

Since a 21.3" LCD is equivalent in size to a 23" CRT (since CRT 
manufacturers lie :), then the price I paid (under $600) is clearly cheaper 
then a comparable CRT.

Oh, and it takes up a heck of a lot less desk space.

Find me a 24" Widescreen CRT for $850, which you can buy the Dell 2405FPW at 
during their sales.

There isn't a price advantage anymore and the good LCDs are superior.
