Quote from hazaky : What about the old CRT's? They take like 10min to power up. The "fade in" effect, u know. While my current old lcd tv powers up in like 1.5sec after the power button has been pressed. The TV part is a total bullcrap in here tbh. Other than that, great comparison :3
Proper CRTs take ~5 seconds to fully power up and they have better color transmission than LCDs of comparable prices ($10 000 000 S-IPS panels don't count, cause they are averagely 5 times more expensive than CRT of same size).
