I recently replaced my 19" flatscreen CRT with a 17" LCD.  Interestingly 
enough, the 19" CRT only had about 18" of glass, of which 17.5" was 
viewable... thus my LCD has almost the same amount of screen space.

I also looked for a 19" LCD, but found that a 17" costs just over $200 
and those extra two inches adds $100 to the price.  It didn't seem 
worth it, so I grabbed the 17" (1280x1024 resolution) and I'm 
completely happy with it.

That being said, I always heartily recommend NewEgg 
(http://www.newegg.com) for any computer purchases.  You can find 17- 
and 19-inch models there for really good prices.

HTH,
Jeff
