My sister has been using a Philips 170B5 for over a year. The bad thing 
about LCD is that it has only one good resolution. All the others are 
emulated. I suggest you go for a 19" at least now that they cost less. 
Also double-check for perfect panel guarantee and their warranty periods 
(as in my Philips).
