And I'm REALLY picky.

My current office CRTs are Sun GDM-5410.

Which is really a Sony GDM-5410

You have everyday PC monitors.
And then REAL workstation monitors.
The is a REAL one.

I have 2 of them, side by side, using a dual headed Matrox card.

At home I have 2 Hitachi 751s on 2 cards using Xinerama.

Don't bother getting the midrange stuff. The physical pain and eyestrain is not worth it. Either you can justify the larger good monitor or not. If not, then get a good smaller one.
