Hey guys...Im finaly ready to upgrade my monitor setup. I want a large main screen and smaller 15-17in for tering off windows to the side.

I'm pretty set on the 20in Cinema, but I'm not sure what to go for on the second monitor. Quality isn't that important, and the budget is tight for this secondary screen.

Anyway, its gotta either be DVI or VGA. I first want to konw if apple ever made a 15in DVI LCD...the newer looking ones, not the old B&W style ones. If I could find one, if would compliment the looks of my Cinema display.

But the apple 15in is an old ass screen. I'm not too worried about getting the most out of this display, but its still always nice to have nice things The viewing angle on it is like 90/120. And the ADC is out (well, the whole thing is out if they don't make a DVI one) cos that adapter is expensive as heck. I would guess some comparable Sony would have better specs anyway. And the SDM-HS53/W dosen't seem like it would look too bad up to the cinema.

What do you guys think?
