I will say though that reading all day on an LCD is WAY more comfortable that reading all day on a CRT! Maybe that's why so many of the 20+ year IT crowd says they like LCD readers--compared to the CRTs they read on for the first half of their careers, LCD is heaven!

They still sell CRT monitors. This one is advertised as reducing eye strain, lol:

My husband and I've spent our entire careers on computers -- IT for him and editing for me. We started on amber screens. No eye strain for either of us, knock wood, despite untold hours of daily online time for work and fun.
I'm glad that e-ink exists for readers with eye problems, though. I support reading in all its forms.
