I just got a brand new Samsung 19" display, and OMG it's AWESOME!!!!!!! I came from a 17" CRT, and the difference is nothing short of incredible. I am EATING HEARTY!

Went from a 17" LCD to my current 20" last summer. Pretty amazing difference.

I used LaCie monitors for the last few years and kept them very well calibrated. In the last few months I have gone to 24" and 20" iMacs at work and home and found them well calibrated right out of the box. The brightness was too high for the ambient light at the office, so I had to turn it down to the lowest brightness, but I am very pleased with both monitors.

I went from a 17" CRT to a 21" Samsung... with 1000:1 Contrast ratio and 5 MS response time.
Never looked back.

I found going from a 17" CRT to a 17" LCD to be amazing. I am never going to buy another CRT for a computer, and probably not for a TV either. What a difference!
However, I think my next desktop display will be a wide-screen 19" or 20" rather than something really huge. Not only do I need to worry about space on the desk (width, not depth!), but I don't want to need to use a magnifying glass to see the text from a comfortable viewing distance!

Oh, he'll get one. Eventually. But that G5 still has quite a bit of life left in it. I expect my G5 will last me another 2 or 3 years, at least (And I've had it since 2003).
