Buying a laptop that will be my only computer, but will be connected to free-standing monitor at home for photo editing. So, my questions are:

1. What 19" CRT do people recommend? can't afford high-end stuff (>$500).
2. Laptop (ThinPad) has options for discrete Radeon 1300 GPU card or built-in Intel GPU. I think of this as being useful for gaming (which I don't do much), but will it also help with display of photos?
3. Laptop has options for for XGA (1024 X 768) resolution or SXGA (1400 X 1050). How much difference will this really make? And how will this affect the requirements for the monitor?

Thanks for any help!

Same question: can someone recommend a high quality CRT (19" ) and/or a good review of products on the web? It's tough to find any objective reviews out there since LCDs are all the rage now.
