There is one other main difference which you may want to consider: CRT monitors produce large amounts of radiation. Said radiation is known to cause brain cancer. In case you didn't know, cancer generally isn't good. Last I checked, LCDs weren't known to produce this radiation.
On ghosting, my mother has an LCD - not a new one, either - which doesn't have that problem. It also seems to work quite well at any resolution you care to mention, and supports refresh rates higher than my newer CRT - which I want to replace at the earliest opportunity, because of the countless display problems I have with it (most noticeably, I *cannot* stop the display from curving at the edges).
