If you do a lot of graphic intensive stuff on your computer such as video or gaming, then make sure that you buy yourself a fast lcd monitor. The newest ones are down to 2ms. Here is a 3ms 19" LCD manufactured by Viewsonic that they sell at tiger direct:

If you are doing graphic intensive stuff and don't buy a fast monitor, you will be VERY disappointed with your monitor. There is a reason why they always display these monitors with the fish tank screensaver. The fish move real slow, so it doesn't show the limitations of the slow lcd monitors. Trust me, if you want to play NHL2006, or watch movies you want a fast monitor. If you don't want to worry about whether the monitor will keep up speed wise, then stick with a CRT. They have some really cheap CRT's at tiger direct.
