When I built my desktop back in the fall, I splurged on a GORGEOUS Dell 22" SP2208WFP monitor. HDMI, DVI, VGA, Stereo Audio in/out and a 4-port USB hub built into the monitor. It's soooo much better looking sitting next to my 19" Asus LCD. I would always recommend getting an excellent monitor because "Hey! You gotta stare at it all the time!" LoL!
