Also, a 21 inch LCD generally has a bigger viewable area (up to a couple of inches more) than a 21 inch CRT because the size is taken from the diagonal size of the glass and the tube has a fair amount of extra glass around the display area.

If you're a heavy user don't discount the lack of eye strain too - I'm a software developer so I spend a lot of time looking at a screen. I switched over to LCDs about 4 years ago now and the improvement in my eyes has been immense.
