you thinking about the old LCDs. well, lets just call them flat panels, because i don't know if PC screens are plasma or LCD, but there is a difference, i think they are LCD.
the modern ones have atleast 60Hz framerate, now, that might be kinda low compaired to a 85Hz CRT, but it is plenty fast enough, UK TVs only have 25 FPs. Brightness? well, my LCD is plenty bright enough, my laptop uses an older LCD, and, you can really see the difference between it, and my 20.1" screen, and my LCD is only set to 75% of its possible brightness.
and what was the last 1? Crisper? well, that depends on a few things, aslong as you run the LCD at the resolution was was designed for, it will be crisper, but CRTs can still look crisp running multiple resolutions. and it also depends a lot on the signal cable. you tent to find that a CRT will use a 12mm Diameter thick cable, where a LCD will only use a 8mm diameter cable, resulting in ghosting for the higher resolutions, however, good LCDs also provide a DVI cable, or these massive ones with resolutions above 2048x1536 will use DVI-D (D is for Duel Link, which can actually be split to show 2 unique screens below the resolution of 2048x1536), and these will provide you with the most crispiest picture quality you've ever seen in your life. my 20.1" uses a DVI cable, and man, it is clear.
