Monitoring the situation

My monitor has started to lose it in the last week or so. It started with a bright line near the bottom of the screen that I eventually realized was a wrapping of the bottom few pixels. Slowly it’s worked its way up the screen, to the point where as I began typing this message the entire bottom half was rolled up into a centimetre-wide band of white, and no amount of degaussing or power-cycling will fix it.

So now I have a problem: do I go geeky (and expensive) and go for an LCD screen, or stick with the tried-and-(mostly)-true CRT?
