It won't hurt the CRT as long as you don't severly jar or shake it in the process. Repair shops used to lay the smaller CTR portable TVs on their front to access the bottom of circuit boards for repair and many shops installed replacement CRTs with the set laying face down. Be careful with CRTs because they can be dangerous if they break.

Is LCD better than crt?
You need to be more specific about the criteria to be used in the comparison, but energy wise the lcd uses less power than a crt and that is good for the planet. LCD televisions also take up less space. Although an LCD costs less energy to run, their production processes use more energy than the production of CRT televisions, which may make an LCD more costly in energy, depending on the life of the TV. LCD televisions are starting to incorporate LED backlights, with have the advantage of allowing individual areas to be switched on and off. This enhances contrast (including deep blacks) and picture quality. Picture motion 'smoothness' remains a key advantage of CRT, as the images can "scan" across the screen rather than being limited to jumping between pixels. For optimum picture quality, a HD CRT TV with HDMI input (not upscaling) is better if you can live with the bigger size and higher running cost. A CRT produces a better picture then a LCD. Color standards were set for film and television years ago. As of 05-25-2009 LCD's still can not meet or surpass this standard. 'Deep black' a standard set years ago for film and television is the ability of film and television 'CRT' to show shades of color and gray all the way to complete deep black. An LCD can not meet or surpass this standard. An Lcd can show colors in a Bright kind of way , I call this LCD 'Eye Candy' , it is not true colors and deep black. All this is researchable on the net. And No a plasma screen can not meet or surpass the standard of film and television CRT.

What are retrace lines on a tv?
Why TV Retrace Lines OccurI am no expert, but I will try to explain A standard TV screen is made up of 480 lines from top to bottom. Retrace lines will only happen on a TV with a regular Picture tube (known as a CRT), they will not happen on a LCD or Plasma screen. So before I say how retrace lines happen, lets first get little understanding of how the TV puts an image on a CRT. The lines on a CRT are made by a device in the back (known as the neck)of the picture tube called the electron gun. By use of magnetic fields controlled through a device called a Yoke mounted on the neck of the CRT. Now the electron beam emitted by the electron gun is made to go across the front of the CRT screen that is coated with a layer of Phosphor that glows when the electron hits it. When that beam starts at one side reaches the opposite side of the picture tube it has to quickly return back to that first side in order to make that next line. On a standard TV, in order to make the image of a single frame, it creates this line across the screen 240 times from top to bottom, it then returns to the top and starts down again with a second set of 240 lines that fill in between the first 240 lines to create one full frame image of 480 lines, and it does this 30 times a second. Now the retrace lines you are asking about happens when a circuit in the TV known as the Blanking Circuit, fails causing the Beam that is moving from the bottom to the top of the screen to become visible.
