1280x1024? It looks like 19" LCDs have come down to less than I paid for my 19" Iiyama a few years back. The problem (apart from lack of cash) is that that seems to be the maximum resolution at the moment, whereas the two 19" CRTs I'm using both do 1600x1200, which I make pretty full use of.
Ah, well, that was the downside. I paid upwards of £700 for each of mine. In my defence, (a) I had been patiently waiting for 1600x1200 LCDs to come down from £4000-odd, and (b) I would probably pay that again if I really had to because I like them so much.
That was in early 2003; a quick search of iiyama's website suggests that their current 19" LCD doesn't do 1600x1200 any more, but that they have a 20" one which does for somewhere around £600. So they still don't seem to be dropping very fast...
