So... when you buy one, I find myself more concerned with which brands or features I should steer clear of rather than which are considered "good" or the "best". Anybody well fared to comment on this side of things? I'm looking for a new 19" LCD monitor (probably non-widescreen). Already been looking at newegg and pricewatch, but still uncertain as to what's what. Let's hear it.

Not neccessarily. Dunno what timbo's doing, but for example desktop publishing is a lot easier the more vertical space you have.

thats why you get a widescreen and stand it on it's side. In fact, some even swivel now. Most drivers can rotate the picture for you, if not, i'm sure you can find some third party app. I have a friend that swears that it's how the web was meant to be viewed. I've never been able to get used to it though.

They can do that now? Neat, what would be an example of an LCD that can swivel?

Edit: Oh nevermind, I found a few. Kinda torn between:
