Default Bad Ass Monitors: I Want One (Advice Needed!)

Not sure if this is the right forum for this, but...

I am in the market for a new computer monitor. I currently have a 15" Dell 1024 res. flat panel monitor. It's okay, but the size, and more importantly, and resolution is not conducive to online poker. I can only do two tables without severely overlapping. Considering that I usually four table at Party, this makes for frantic clicking and the inablity to really watch the games when not in a hand.

So...
I am getting a new monitor and have narrowed it down to two choices.

Dell 23" TV/Monitor

and

Dell 20.1 High Def. Monitor

The 23" also doubles as a 16X9 screen ratio, has the option to watch Tv while on the computer, and the I-have-a-plasma-tv-biotch appeal. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

The 20" has better resolution (1600x1200),4x3 screen ratio, and is about $800-900 plus shipping, compared to $1440 with shipping for the 23" TV/monitor.

If anyone has any pros/cons for these monitors (esp. the Dell 23" bc I have yet to hear any user comments about it), please let me know as this is a big decision ($$) for me.

Thanks for all the help and advice,

FsuPlayer

BTW I have played Party on my parents 17" 1260 res. monitor and was able to fit 4 screens with just a little overlap, any idea how the party screens fit on monitors with the above resolution? Does size of the monitor have anything to do with that, or is it just resolution?
