Anyone know of good deals on 19" flat-screen monitors?
Thanks in advance for any referrals.

1. buy at newegg.com
2. buy samsung. Make sure they have DVI inputs (assuming your video
cards got DVI output).
3. look at 17 inch. Same max resolution as 19 inch flat panels (1024 x
1280). If you need more screen, buy 20 inch.

Let me reiterate this, from experience. Buy nothing but Samsung. I have
bought 4 19 inches, 2 SyncMaster 191T and 2 SyncMaster 191T+. After one
year of usage, not a single dead pixel on any of the monitor. Shop for
prices all you want, but do buy Samsung.
And yes, look for screens without gizmos like speakers & such. For
trading, you want those things to be as slim a bezel as possible. These
Samsungs fit the bill perfectly. Also consider the fact that most Dell
flat panels are rebadged Samsung (as far as I have heard - but not sure).

PS : And because I own 19 inches, I can tell from experience you would
be just fine with 17 inches. 19 inches makes stuff a little bigger, no
doubt, but gives you no extra screen real estate.
