I'm one of the guys asking the question so i don't have my monitor working
with linux yet.  but i want to!.  fwiw, I have a Dell 2405FPW 24" that i
bought about a year ago.  It's sweet and works fine under windoze.  Large
lcds are cheap now.  i bought this for over $800.  I believe they are half
that these days.
