Let's extend this topic a bit.
Anyone still working with CRT monitors, or have we all hopped on the LCD bandwagon? Everything I own has an LCD monitor, and I couldn't be happier. Well, they could be bigger, and then I'd be happier, but aside from that, yeah, I'm pretty happy.
I'm still working on ol' warp-screened CRT.
Hmm, yeah, I probably should have mentioned that one of my monitors has a nasty ol' bruise from an accident involving an overly curious cat. And another one has a dead pixel, but it's not terribly noticable.
EDIT: Hey, wow, I hit 100 posts some 9 posts ago. Awesome. I feel I should be dancing.

1280x1024 on my 19" CRT monitor![]()
1024x768 on my labtop.
I have an old View Sonic 17" at 1024x768 I use at home. I'd love to get a flatscreen for it at some point. Up until recently, LCD monitors were terrible for color work (graphic design, which I do for a living) and twitch/FPS games. But the technology has advanced quite a bit where there is almost no blurring for FPSs on good screens and the color is comparable (and sometimes better) than CRTs.

LCD. Works fine for games an stuff.
I've had a 15" LCD for the past year or so. They are much more awesome than any CRT monitor due to the amount of room they free up.
When I upgrade my PC, later in the year, I shall be investing in a 17/19" LCD.
I feel most comfortable with 1024 by 768. I remember the days when this was regarded as a high resolution. Unfortunately people are calling it a low res now which is a shame, 1280 by 1024 and the like just seem way to small, it's like... How far are people wanting to go? 1024 by 768 is fine damn it!![]()
I suppose 1280 by 1024 is fine on a 19 inch monitor though, but for a 17, it's very, very small. That's why I stick to 1024 by 768, it just feels 'right' on my 17 inch.
erm.. it must seem kind of blurry also.
i run 1280x1024... i upsize the display of text in web browsers / documents
and i know my way around my system setup, so reading aint an inssue.
i have an LCD on my work pc, and my gaming rig, both @ 1280x1024.
CRT on the "family" box in the living room.. @ 1024 x 768
and the TV running the media centre.. not sure what res that thing is at, but i thinmk its PAL..
I haven't lost my mind. It's backed up on disk... somewhere.
1280x1024 should only be run on LCDs made for it, OR a CRT that is NOT 4:3... (as 1280x1024 is a 5:4 aspect, not 4:3..
Laptop: 1024x768
Macintosh Desktop: 1280x1024 (LCD is of propper aspect)
