LCD backlighting - this is what it looks like

CRT sucks, its a dangerous analog dinosaur technology being left behind by its own manufacturers for good reason.

Was that not subtle enough?

I meant to say I prefer LCD's after owning a half dozen CRT's.

But alas, I still have a CRT in my arcade so it seems I am behind enemy lines or perhaps part of the problem.

Damn, it makes me feel like the Cuban general on Red Dawn sometimes.

Well LCD has a 2KV section too, which can turn you into a "Croque Monsieur" as well.

Thanks for the advice Blanka,

I will make sure to remember that next time the back of my flat panel is off as I wire up a homemade harness to to the video board & tweak the image settings with a screwdriver in a blind spot while fearing the isolation transformer near my feet after hours of trial & error configuration with special graphic cards & drivers after installing a cap kit on a low res monitor with burn in assembled in 1994 without hopes of acquiring a 4 year service plan at time of completion.

Nah, I will just leave the LCD in its case, plug it into a regular card via HDMI & use the remote to change settings while enjoying a 1080p resolution on all of my favorite emulators.

LOL..calm down..I just wanted to be LCD righteous for a little bit to balance out all the LCD haters, unfortunately I must go now & play MK3 on my CRT  ;D

Sometimes we need to stir the pot  >:D

Also, when I watch the three stooges I make sure its on an old black & white RCA receiving its signal via rabbit ears to ensure authenticity.

Because its wrong to watch them via satellite or DVD on my plasma or LCoS.

HAHAHA ;)

Erm, you mean in a theater projected off of black and white film, right?  Because people didn't have TVs back in the late 30s.   ;D
