Not a serious gamer. Do have poor eyesight. Using a 19" CRT now. Would like to move the monitor farther away.

hmmm depends on how poor you eyesight is....almost anytime someone asks this I would say buy a dell 2005FPW...
On your 19" CRT, what res do you run?

hmm well if that's all you run then I would say buy a 19" LCD as it will have the largest picture (the 20"s use a 1600x1200 res or 1680x1050 for wide, where the 19" uses 1280x1024 which displays less pixels over a barely smaller area making the image bigger.

As for which 19"er to get, I would just checkout newegg and pick one with DVI that is cheap
