The biggest advantage of CRT is that my cat could sit on one. He would be drawn to that heat generating machine, lay on top of it with his fore legs dangling over the edge of the screen and snooze while I played whatever video game was the current hit well into the night.
I miss that cat-butt-warmer. I miss my cat too.
- omerhj 4y agoOne of my cats loved snoozing on my big 19" CRT as well. When I replaced the CRT with my first LCD monitor, he tried to hop onto the non-existent top of the screen. In a mad scramble to not fall he put all of his front claws in the plastic cover of the screen. The LCD went from zero to hundreds of bad pixels within a day :-( I still miss that cat too.

- ace2358 4y agoMy cat used to sleep on my crt during 36 -48 gaming sessions of Everquest during school holidays with my best buddy. Two computers next to each other. Too much cola. Huge amounts of rage when we would die. Most likely because we barely slept. Heh. Then when I got my first MacBook Pro around 2007 my cat decided that the hot as keyboard was the new sleeping spot. No more computer use for me when he wanted to sleep haha. I miss that cat too.
- davidgerard 4y agothe death of the monitor toy not sure about cat hair in the vents though!
- jerrysievert 4y agofor me it was that I could play videos for the cat where it would attack the screen - the vhs tape that I played was called "video catnip". I wouldn't dare do that with an lcd display, even (or especially?) if it were mounted to a wall.
