My new Dell 2001FP 20" LCD monitor is installed, and WOW! With the old 19" tube CRT I was only able to get easily readable text at 1280x1024 @85hz refresh - with 16bit color. 32-bit or any higher refresh rate made the monitor whine.
With this new monitor I am running 1600x1200x32bit color @60hz refresh, (60hz is standard for all LCD's), and it looks great!
Now to play some games and see how it does!
