I few words of advice though:

If you have room, get a CRT. They are much, much cheaper than LCD's and still look better. I work on a 19" NEC CRT that cost me $150. My dad doesn't have room for a CRT so he got a 14.1" Phillips LCD. It cost him $400 (srry for all the american money and sizes. I'm just a stupid american lol) If you're willing to spend that much money and have enough room, I'd look at dual 21" CRT's. Video editing programs can take up a lot of desktop space so you want a lot of real estate. Plus, it's nice to have an external monitor to preview your video on.

Just make sure to get a good monitor(s) because they will probably outlast 2 or 3 comps.
