From a Wall Street Journal article this morning:

"...Liquid crystal display TVs account for 82 percent(sic!) of sales for nonprojection flat-screen TVs...".

Oh Man. Where do they get this stuff? Don't they have a tech editor? I doubt the percentage is even 20 percent, even as much as I like LCD's.

I think they include LCD Monitors, not just LCD TVs to get that number.

I agree with Mark and Kilmar-

How many people still use a CRT Monitor with their computer these days!!!

Well, heck Cheridave, I do. Guess I'd best crank up the old buggy and git on down to that there store and pick me up a new-fangled gadget.
