Monitors make me hate this whole thing.

Awesome link! I was looking for something like that.

If you go to 24" 16x10, it seems to equal the height of a 21" though. Isn't a 24" monitor 16x10 rather than 16x9?

Depends on the make and model. I have seen 24" in both aspect ratios

Yeah, a 16:10 24" will have a ~21" 4:3 space (0.94% smaller diagonal).
DNA Dan:
If you go this 16:10 route look for resolutions of 1920X1200 (as opposed to 1080).

Here are the ones from Newegg. I don't know about lag on these larger LCDs, but something to keep in consideration before purchasing. Also the viewing angle.

Guywiththegun:
Why no 1080? Is there some kind of problem with it?

I found an awesome deal for an Emachines 23 inch monitor ($100 after Staples coupon), but its 16.9. Using displaywars, a 21 inch 4:3 actually looks way bigger in comparison. Who knew that made such a difference?
