Now I am getting monitor envy, as I only sport a 20.1" one

That would take a 512 MB top of the line ATI or NVIDIA based card though to run it for gaming at the required resolution.
What is the stock res?
Mine is 1680x1050 and my present ATI 9600 Pro handles it perfectly, but I doubt it would handle the 24" one for gaming, not sure.

That 30" would be great to hang on the wall.

Only 2560x1600.

I'd say you'd need an SLI card for games to look good on that baby. Perhaps dual SLI?

Quite a bit of pocket change. I think I'll wait for the "newness" factor to wear off a smidge.
