For what it's worth, I'm running a pair of Dell 2407 24" wide-screen LCD monitors using DVI input from a Matrox P650 video card at a resolution of 1920x1200 each. I like them, they look good and I have plenty of screen real estate for Vegas at 3840x1200. I also like the fact that they support DVI and VGA computer input and composite, S-video and component video inputs.The 2407 is currently on sale at Dell for $719 with free shipping.

Wow, that was scary! When I read the subject line I thought there was an ironclad heading my way!

Why two monitors?

Being able to spread your timeline) or rearrange things any way you want) is a huge improvement for editing. I edit on dual 17" LCDs and would (almost) kill John for his dual 24" setup. Very sweet :-)

Well it seems they look Ferrari and I guess if you're an uber rich gamer they'd fill the bill but if you're looking for the best quality monitor with a Ferrari price tag Eizo would be a better way to go for video work. If you're going to blow that kind of money you'd also want to look at a good gizmo for calibrating them.
