It is usually best to actually see the monitor in question at the appropriate
resolution, particularly if you suffer from migraines (I find anything under
75Hz to be unviewable).  My 3 year old Mag (DX17F) is definately low end, and I
prefer the more expensive 17" Nokia 447X monitor I used for awhile (until I
rev'ed up to a 21" Nokia for my work system).
