I bought my 1st and only LCD monitor a little over a year ago.  It's a
"refurb" from IBM that didn't cost much more than $100.
It is quite nice to use.  It's a 15", but thats close to the same
dimensions as the usable area of the 17" CRT I used to use.
Another advantage is I can store a lot more junk on top of my firewall
computer, that also supports the monitor.  ;-)
