MODERATORS
I truly despise that we stopped innovating on CRTs when flat panels came along.
CRTs had flatscreens beat until less than a decade ago, which was nearly 20 years after being replaced by society.
Higher resolutions, refreshrates and lower latency until the 4k 250fps+ race began.
However, i doubt there is much more to gain due to CRT being well into the end of the development S-curve.
There was some hype for nanotube display tech about 20 years ago that was closer to CRTs in picture quality and responsiveness. Unfortunately it seems like LCD/LED has won out over any other tech so far.
