if you can stand to go a little smaller and you dont do anything that requires 'true color' I would say go with a flat screen monitor. Less flicker and easier on the eyes for say... gaming

I use a viewsonic 17" monitor and I can run 1600x1200 with no problem, the thing is finding a skin that uses that res so the text does not require a magnifying glass lol.

I run normally in 1280x1024 and it runs and looks great

Default I just got a 19"

I picked up a 19" monitor at Office depot for $185.00

It was made by KDS here is the specs from memory

.22 dot

refresh rate up to 120htz

max res 1920x1440

Extreame Flat screen

I shopped around for about 3 months and this was by far the best deal i could find. I run at 1152x864 and my refresh rate is 93htz so i would think the refresh rate at 1600x1200 would be around 85htz which is very good

you only see flicker when your refresh rate drops below 64htz and i dont think any of the monitors of these times will drop below 75htz

just my 2cp
