Digital BW, The Print

I also do both color and B&W, and just got a LaCie Electronnblue 22 
and am pretty happy with it. The only complaint I have is that I 
don't like the fine horizontal lines on the screen (I think it's 
from where the masks join up) but I think that's unavoidable in a 
22" monitor.

Whatever you get, plan on spending ~$200 more for a monitor 
calibration tool. Even the best monitor will drift around over time, 
and what's the point of spending $700 for a monitor if you don't 
know the colors are as close as they can be to objective? 
Colorvision and GretagMacbeth sell such tools (I've used both and 
slightly prefer the Colorvision).
