CRTs are still unmatched for gaming. Aside from input lag, they don't degrade low resolutions the same way that LCDs do. For the longest time I stuck with a 19" flatscreen 4:3 CRT that did 170Hz at 800x600, an absolute beast. As a kid I'd lug it around to QuakeWorld and Counter-Strike LAN tournaments. I've gone through a bunch of high refresh rate LCDs since, but nothing has matched the perfect hand-eye sync of a CRT running at high FPS and high refresh rate with a 1000 Hz mouse, zooming around dm3 in a complete state of flow.
