Cocktail Cabinet Monitor Size
IAmDotorg:
I have a 1600x1200 IPS Dell 2007FP in mine. Its a similar 20.1" as the 2001FP.
I'd prefer something slightly bigger but there's VERY few 4:3 LCD options that have suitable viewing angles. I doubt a "standard" cab would fit anything much bigger, anyway. Mine is slightly upsized and I could go up more than maybe an inch or two anyway.
If you go that route, be aware these monitors are not all IPS. If you're buying it online, verify the serial numbers. There's webpages that document the ranges that are IPS.

But does anyone make a kit for the bigger 20" monitor?

Not sure but the Dell 2001FP dimensions are 17.75" x 14" Outer dimension and 16.25" x 12.25 inner screen dimensions (.75 inch bezel on 3 sides and 1" on the bottom (left side if in portrait) with the buttons) if anyone knows what size the cocktail cab kit tops are !
Figure the 20.1" screens aren't that much larger than the 19" ones ( my Dell 1908FP (5:4) is 16.375" x 13.5" outer dimensions) so 1.375 inches x .5 inches smaller than the 20.1 inch 2001FP outer dimension so the 20.1 inch screen would only need an extra 5/8 inch on each length and 1/4 inch on each width to fit. :dunno (seems a bit larger difference than that though since the 2001FP is actually 4:3 where the 1908FP is 5:4 so no wasted black space on the sides when in 3:4 vertical mode on the 2001 )
EDIT : Here's a pic of one of Rick's kits from bobA's thread-- looks to be plenty of space to cut out a bit larger opening for the screen so I'd think it could be made to fit the 20" monitor.
