This has changed recently. CRTs have contrast ratios around 600:1 to 700:1, although they typically don't look like it because of the reduced brightness. New LCDs are running 1000:1 and up.

Though not, I think, measured in really equivalent ways. And in fact people testing the Viewsonic P series I've ordered measure closer to 700:1 than its specified 1000:1 (which is still very good). -- David Dyer-Bennet, <mailto:dd-b@xxxxxxxx>, <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/> RKBA: <http://www.dd-b.net/carry/> Pics: <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/> Dragaera/Steven Brust: <http://dragaera.info/>
