Dell has a few cheap 17-19" widescreens for under $200. There comes a limit in LCD production where smaller does not mean less expensive when producing useful computer displays. 15-19" is about as cheap as you're going to find.. try to get a used monitor from someone looking to upgrade to something bigger, or buy an LCD with a broken inverter for $10-20, and spend the $20 to fix it yourself. If my mom can do it, you can do it.. just takes a $5 soldering iron and some patience.
