Got my Dell 2005FW 20.1" WS LCD
Wooo wooo! My bro got me an early x-mas gift; a Dell 2005FW 20.1" Widescreen LCD. This thing is amazing, the colours are more vibrant and playing F.E.A.R. on this is a whole new shabang-a-bang. No ghosting (12 ms response time) or fringing of light.
Here are some pics:

What was the previous monitor you were used to? I'm just curious because I'm pretty sure a 20" 16x9 monitor actually has a smaller vertical dimension than a 17" 4x3 monitor.

When I play F.E.A.R., I never really noticed jaggies in the game that much, but with the LCD I do! Now I need a card that can handle 8x AA
I didn't buy the monitor for screen size, if so then I would have purchased the 24" (when it becomes cheap). I needed to get deskspace back and this was the logical choice.

Dell LCD monitors are nice. I've been very impressed with the 17" Ultrasharp on my desk at work.

Obviously playing at native is the way to go, but if you don't have the power, then the Aspect feature is great

Slightly OT FYI for anyone that's considering a dual monitor setup and may possibly get serious about photo editing. All versions of Windows are only capable of applying a single color profile regardless of the number of monitors. This means you will only get accurate color on one monitor. Longhorn... errr Vista.... is supposed to fix this.
