Depends on the season....i'm getting this pretty soon...
(ok, i'm not)
btw, currently a sony sdm-s73 17" tft. it's good for general work&graphic design, and i like the fact that it's got preset&1 customized brightness settings, which are accessible by a single button. it's good when lighting conditions change in the room...i just switched from a viewsonic tft. I prefer tft's over crts these days. The only downside is graphic design...these aren't exactly the perfect choice for that. but if you're like me and you stare at your monitor for 10+ hours/day, you better get a TFT. my old crt used to kill my eyes...no probs with the TFT.
the only thing that sucks is if you set your res. to 1024*768 for web designing purposes....it's not as sharp as it is when set to 1280*1024 (native res.)..
thinking of getting a 19".
