What do you think its the best? (i have a huge desk)

two SunMicrosystem 21" Flat CRT ($100 a piece)
one Sony FW900 24" WideScreen CRT( $400)

i used to run two monitors before i sold my desktop for a laptop. Liked dual screen because you can view two documents at once (eg, coding) and you can just hit maximize instead of resizing the documents so it can fit two on a screen. However, i watch WS movies and i hate black strips! will have a TV tuner on my PC also in 4:3. I also game from time to time, mostly racing and stradegy games.

*i'm going for CRT because its more frexible with resolutions. Specially in gaming which native resolutions of LCDs will kill my 6800GS.

I don't know which one to go with, or if you guys got any advice for me?

(budget = $400)

THank you

I just got mine from E-bay a week ago for $325 shipped. It's pretty good, although there's a slight focus problem in the corners (very slight, but noticble with text). Video on it looks very nice though
 
its second hand, not refub

last monitor i had was a 21" and lasted only 1 yr... don't want to happend to my 24" (if i buy it)
 
FW900 all the way, best monitor you can buy except the dell 3007 IMO (for my uses)

also best monitor for gaming IMO
