I have a CRT on my spare PC, but on this one I'm using a 17 inch Viewmaster LCD running at 1280x1024 resolution (it's native res). It's really important to exactly match the resolution of your system with the native resolution of the LCD to attain the sharpest possible screen. I've got a dual head card and I intend on using the CRT as a second monitor for processing. FWIW at work we have a couple of budget widescreen (around $300) LCD's running at 1600x??? and they are brilliant, the extra width is really nice.
