LCD monitor

[carolin]

How much less energy does an LCD monitor use compared to a CRT? Just to be comparative, let's say a 19 inch LCD monitor vs. a 19 inch CRT monitor used for the same amount of time. How much less energy does the average LCD use and could that add up to any significant savings over a month's or year's time? I'm just curious, and if it really makes a difference, I'll factor that in to my purchase.

Not sure if those are typical values but if they are correct then the 19" CRT uses approx twice as much power as the equivalent LCD.
