For some reason I find it weird that Shrek coincided with CRTs. Not sure if it's because I tend to think of Shrek as being more recent than he is, or that I think CRTs stopped being used earlier...

I think it's because CRTs seem like such a thing from the 80s, and Shrek is more recent than that, but Shrek and CRTs were both fairly common in the early 2000s.
