[dba-Tech] New Flat panel display

I am about to spring for a flat panel display to use on my notebook in
addition to the built in notebook display (two monitors).  The laptop is a
Dell M90 with the 17" 1440 x 900 display (which I really like).  I am
looking at a 22" external monitor.  These all appear to be standardized on
the 1680 x 1050 resolution.

I am looking for tips, suggestions, gotcha's and "don't even think about".
Does anyone care to pipe up?
