I don't agree that the AppleColor monitor is the safest bet.  While
there is a "secret" warranty on AppleColor monitors with jitter
problems, the main warranty on these products is only 3 months.

For less money you can buy a Sony CDP1302 which is the same picture
tube, plus an anti-glare coating.  It is a multiscan monitor with a
1-year warranty.  A longer warranty makes this monitor an even better
deal.  If you ever want to change displays, you can easily sell it to
someone with either a Mac OR a PC.  Perhaps someday you'll be able to
buy an 800*600 display card to get 36% more resolution on your old monitor.
In summary, the monitor:
  - Has nearly the same picture quality (but duller because of anti-glare)
  - Costs less
  - Has a longer warranty
  - Is more resaleable
  - May provide more resolution when future display cards are released.
