Well, I could drop a few things that I don't absolutely have to have... such as dual Xeon processors and SCSI ... then I am at:

2.8 P4
1GB DDR
80GB ATA100
NVIDIA Quadro NVS 280
10/100/1000 ethernet
XP Pro

Now I am at a mere $1243.00
plus a 21" crt monitor $499.00

for a total of $1742 x 2

or $3484.00

but hell as long as the boss is buying why not get the goods...

What monitor are you looking at?
As I am in the market too.

CAB to answer your question ... I am looking really hard at a 23" TFT LCD DVI flat panel from HP but at $1699 I am wondering if I will get it...

AOC makes pretty decent flan screen CRT monitors and I can get a 21 for around $500 but I really really want that 23" flat panel....

Oh and did I say that I really really want a flat panel ?

in that case, why not go for 3 x 21" @ $500 ~ you get SURROUND VISION !!!

I missed that link, which one is it? Or were you talking about crt's.

I'd love an LCD but i'm looking in the 500 - 800 dollar range..
I hate the idea fo having a 21" monolith  on my desk but $1600 is
too much for me when $500 may get the job done.
