Just as an aside, for those who might be about to purchase a monitor
with dual VGA/DVI inputs intending to connect to two machines (e.g.
the ubiquitous Windows/Linux in parallel setup), it's worth checking
to see how easily you can switch between video input channels using
the available fascia buttons.

For example, I've got an NEC 175VXM+ which allows me to switch between
the two machines connected to it using a very convenient single button
push. Whereas my Philips 2000W requires seven (sic!) button pushes to
switch channels. Needless to say, if you are going to be switching
between channels on a regular basis an arrangement like that on the
Philips would be a major PITA.
