We bought a 17' flat screen moniter a few days ago, visually stunning without hurting your eyes, but the problem with many such LCD dispays low viewing angle (not too bad) and low refresh rate (whatever LCDs have which is measured in mili seconds) so if you drag something across the screen you tend to get minor streaking, otherwise fantastic.
Or a CRT moniter (which is the standard type used) which don't have the problems mentioned above, also tend to have richer colours.
Although 15' may be reasonably small I really wouldn't spend too much on an upgrade, but it up to you.
Also if you are serious (BTW I don't reccomend) about breaking your current one the pins on the video plug could be an option, but as mentioned above, sell it! don't destroy it.
