I thought about getting a short^Wwide monitor as #2 when I was shopping a
few weeks ago, but then realized it would look funny alongside my existing
monitor, so I excluded those. Good thing: I get roughly 525 hits for
1680x1050 LCDs, and 15 hits for 1600x1200 LCDs (to match my other one).
Much more manageable. (I got a Dell 2001FP for about two-and-a-quarter with
S&H.) As a single monitor, I'd probably choose a wide one, mostly because
4:3 LCDs are getting rarer.

$250 is a good price, especially for a new unit though.
