Need a computer monitor. What to pick?

Okay, so my old CRT monitor is now in CRT land. It was an old 19" Viewsonic. Considered to be the top of the line in it's day. I bought it on Ubid. It was reconditioned and had served me faithfully for 7 years.

Now, my uses for a NEW computer monitor is for mostly Computer Aided Drafting. This is line intensive. Constant updates from the screen is a norm (much like gaming). I also have some uses for spreadsheets, word processing and naturally surfing on the web.

My dillemma? Well, I do have a fixed budget (who doesn't). I do not have a problem with real estate. The bigger the better. But I do not need 24" monstrosities. I have dual 19" regular LCD monitors at work. They are great. I am comfortable with these units. But for home? I was thinking wide screen. Possibly 20 to 22 inch.

What do you people think? What is the best model out there? What would be your first and possibly second choices? Your experiences with your choice?

Oh, my budget? I am trying to stay below $200.00. I have two teenage boys who eat me out of house and home.

    Ok

    Lcd monitors have come down in prices in recent months! so u should get a pretty good deal.

    Specs to look out for:

    response time of 2ms or less

    widescreen

    Dvi input

    I recommend :

    Acer: Very good quality

    Asus: very good quality with added features like speaker, different screen modes...etc

    HP(glossy screen, but doesnt cope well with reflection)

    here you go, these monitors are under 200us dollars
