You definitely want to look at the Cornerstone 17/76 monitor. It can be used with any card, but will run better with its proprietary ImageAccel card. It is more expensive than the others, but it (and other Cornerstone monitors) are created especially for imaging. As another respondent pointed out, Cornerstone monitors are the overwhelming choice for vendors displaying at imaging expositions.
