Grand Fromage posted:The hot part of the CRT is in the rear, there's a open area where the beams shoot through, then the screen. If you were to open up the CRT and put your hand right on the hot part, it'd be at least as hot as your LCD. Additionally, the "open area" is a hard vacuum, and the screen is glass over half an inch thick, which together make a pretty good insulator, just like a thermos bottle. It's the electronics that get hot. The case of my 19" ViewSonic gets really damned hot if I keep it running all day, but the screen is cooler than room temperature. And if you opened up a CRT and put your hand right on the hot part, you might die. Lots of nasty high-voltage capacitors and whatnot back there.
