Do you have a bestbuy near you? Tomorrow you can buy a 22" Widescreen LCD for $199. it has 5ms response time, 700:1, and also has video inputs.

But if not, I would buy another 19" lcd. A 20.1" isn't much bigger then you already have.
 
Dual or wide?

Well the key question is what you intend to do on the setup. ;)

honesty, just normal computing. im on my computer ALL the time. i had a dual screen setup for a long while with my old laptop and LOVED it. i just miss it.
 
i have a friend that has a 23inch and it looked awesome. If by any chance you want to watch a movie on it, would it bug you to see borders across the middle of the screen?
 
Personaly i would sell your current and buy a Widescreen.

Dual screens ok but i would get one big screen.
 
i got a wide screen just because i hated the gap i had when i ran 2 17" and one was a CRT and one was flat panel. wide screen it is!
 
I was playing with my TV tuner last night and watching TV on the widescreen. It has adjustments in the software if you have patience so that the picture completely fits the screen. So, I plugged my PVR into it and I have digital cable on my computer. It's kinda neat.
 
now you need another 19" LCD to put on the left or another windscreen and put the 19" in the middle

nice setup and calculus book too
