The BenQ BL2411PT has some good reviews and is 16:10 for those extra vertical pixels.

My problem is finding one that doesn't cost the earth to replace a 19" CRT monitor. I don't want to loose pixels in either direction from the 1600x1200 I currently run. Must be as good as the CRT for
viewing angle
colour - photo work
clarity - office work
response - games and video watching

and so on. Seems that some are good at one thing, some others but nothing as generally good all round.

The other fun I've had with flat monitors at work is that CRT's can adjust to various resolutions so if some software starts at some odd resolution I can still see to make corrections. On flat screens I've often encountered blank screens or out of resolution messages. And this is more modern technology?
