What are some good monitors for coding? I've spend anything from 9 to 14 hours staring at 2 and sometimes 3 monitors with 4 to 5 vim isntances at once. I know I am asking this to the right people here ! :)

Are there any suggestions?

I recently bought a ViewSonic crt E90f 19" monitor.. dot pitch is .21 but the refresh rate is kind of low
(1600x1200).. and im having trouble finding online.. info.. on.. you know. Specifically what is good for looking at masses of text for long times. This is a flat screen crt- it helps a lot with my eyes.

I have little to no experience with flat lcds, is this something one should consider? are there advantages? I see a lot of talk online about graphics and monitors, but little about coding. Please suggest, money is not an issue with this.. it's our eyes!
