Monitors and power draw

[Jerry Feldman]

Just a quick question on monitors in general and their power draw. 
I was curious regarding the amount of power a standard CRT monitor 
might draw in contrast to a (roughly) equivalent TFT flat panel monitor. 

And speaking of roughly equivalent, it appears that the 15" TFT screens 
are roughly equivalent to the 17" CRT. 

Another thing is the backlighting. Some warrantees specifically include 
the backlighting, some do not.
