Hi, I recently bought CRT monitors for the 3D workstations in our lab. I bought the Viewsonic G225fB and I can really recommend them.
You find them here: http://www.viewsonic.com/products/desktopdisplays/crtmonitors/graphicseries/g225fb/ We bought them from CDW (http://www.cdw.ca in Canada or http://www.cdw.com in the USA) And concerning the 3D stereo discussion, I really do not want to miss stereo for model building.
