Ditto. If I'm not mistaken this is your best choice: Dell UltraSharp 2001FP. If you know someone who owns a small company, you can buy it for ~$550.

I got a 23" NEC CRT at Fry's for $170. It does take up some space, but saved a lot of money and has a bigger screen than I would have gotten.

That's a good option too, but the original poster said he was looking for flat panels, so...

1600x1200

It goes a little higher, but I want each table as big as it can be while showing 4 tables.

The Dell is an amazing monitor. You can get the 2001 or the 2005 which is a cinema display (1680x1050).

If you can wait a day or two, you can find deals on a regular basis to get one of those for $435-475. Check out http://dealnews.com/sections/displaystvs.html

You'll have a little bit of overlap with 1050.
