It's an overgeneralization to say that it is easier to use a flatscreen.
I have a *much* harder time with flatscreens and laptops than I do with
CRTs. And with CRTs I can lower the resolution to reduce the amount
of high frequencies I'm being bombarded with. With LCDs, you're stuck
with the high frequency flicker of the florescent backlight, and the
electric field source is much closer to you. And the exposure to the
florescent light reduces your tolerance for florescent lighting in
stores, office building, etc.

And I'm not the only one who prefers CRTs:

Well, given all the new forms of high frequency radiation we are
being bombarded with these days, we are all guinea pigs. The
only way to avoid them is to live on a desert island.
