Saw in on the FS website for $600 CDN, which to me seems pretty good. $200 off for the next 2 days.

Current monitor is a 19" CRT, so if I go with this i'll be upgrading to DVI. I think i've heard of probs with getting 1680 x 1050 resolution with AGP cards. I've got an x800 AGP, but hopefully i won't run into any probs. I'd probably want to use a DVI-D cable, right?

The idea is to then turn it into a HDTV as well. I would have to get either a cable box or TV tuner to do this, but I will look into that later.
