easy to scratch lcd screens?

The thing I like about this 17" CRT monitor that I'm using is the glass screen is basically impossible to scratch. I'm concerned about the LCD plastic screens and that they might be a bit too easy to scratch, not from things like jabbing it with scissors but from something like hair line scratches from wiping the screen off with a cloth. I like the idea of a much larger screen that uses less power and can be placed in the center of my desk, but I'm just trying to weigh the negatives on an LCD screen.

So what say you about the ease of scratching LCD screens and any other reasons to stick with CRT?
