I have an LG and two AG neovo flat screens, both performed wel over
the last 2-3 years, when I get round to it I'm getting one of these:

NEC/Mitsubishi LCD1770NX-BK 17" TFT

on the basis of several reviews.

I have two graphics cards - one a dual port, the other a simple PCI
card. Windows XP has native support for multiple monitors and you ca
drag windows from screen to screen, I usually have email on my left
screen, main app centre and a browser on the right.

Often while testing I'll hae a browser left and right and tweak the
code in the editor in the middle. Much more productive....

The Mac Mini is connected to a fourth screen, and a KVM (just
switching keyboard and mouse between the two.
