We have an automated telescope out on Long Island, NY.  Currently it has a
CRT on the computer housed in a very small dome.  I'd like to get rid of the
CRT and replace it with a LCD to make things roomier.  The temperature only
occasionally gets that cold out here and with the power on in the dome
probably doesn't get that cold inside.  Also with an LCD it is feasible to
take it out of the dome in the winter and only replace it when needed for
diagnostics.
