Actually, a CRT won't break as easy as a LED or LCD television.
I have a CRT television that is 20 years old, still works perfect.

A VCR is very outdated but it always has that nostalgic feeling when using it.

I have a really weird problem with my computer for the last 2 months and I just now got around to dealing with it. So here it is:

Every time I use my computer for long amounts of time or do stuff like run Minecraft, watch YouTube videos at the same time, and Skype my computer after awhile will start to drop my Minecraft FPS, my Minecraft will still show 90-150 FPS readings but it's no where near that. One day I noticed when it happened, and I dragged one of my internet windows over on my screen, it was also really laggy. Another day it got so bad my audio was cutting in and out and my entire display got maybe, at best 2 FPS, then it froze completely and made this sound.
Here's my System Information.

Alyx why the forget are you bothering to defend CRT monitors
The actual truth is that they're outdated with very little redeeming quality. Nobody would have known that you have a CRT monitor if you decided not to tell us. In fact, nobody would have cared if you hadn't tried to argue the point. Now that you've wasted 2 pages everyone here is going to remember that you're a dumbforget instead of just moving on and talking about something worth talking about

[Alyx Vance]

I was replying to people? I wasn't trying to actually defend a CRT. I know they are stuff but as long as this one is working there isn't a point in throwing it out.

You actually instigated this by saying "what's wrong with CRT monitors" when all I did was mention that they were old as a point of reference

[Alyx Vance]

So, asking what exactly is wrong from your point of view is instigating?

[Cut Glass]

How about you guys stop this stupid, pointless argument and help people that need help.
