CRTs are analog displays — that means that they don’t need to perform any calculations in order to display video, sort of like an [overhead projector](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overhead_projector).

Modern TVs and monitors have pixels, so some calculation needs to be done in order to figure out what color to make each pixel. It’s like trying to take a picture and drawing it onto graph paper, you have to do some thinking to figure out what boxes should be what color in order to get the closest representation of the original picture.
