If your graphics card can support it, Id suggest an Apple 30in Cinema Display, youll get a nicer clean feel and ultra sharp, specifically designed screen to support video/graphics so the game will hold an all new light. Planning on getting one for my Macbook Pro.

Would that work on a PC? I'm assuming thats what Malice has if he's considering Dell...
Anyway, I work on Dell's on the time at work. They are good quality while they're working, and thier warranties are usually pretty good, so I'd say go for it.
But if it was me, I'd go dual 17" LCD's.

It depends on what your using it for. Some of those larger screens have major ghosting issues, and not to mention what it would take to power a game at any high settings @ that native resolution.

A 37" HD Olevia brand flat screen costs less than $1100, search Froogle for Olevia. It's worth it. I've had an Olevia flatscreen wall mounted for about a year and a half now with no problems. I also used it as a desktop monitor, it's awesome for gaming and Guild Wars looks very nice.
If you want it wall mounted, which is by no means necessary, you'll have to buy any standard flatscreen wall mount kit, which is $80, and you'll need a drill, screwdrivers, and stud finder to mount it. It's easy enough to do alone, I've moved mine several times without any help.
The television you're looking at buying is $2400. I wouldn't spend that, go with a relatively cheap LCD, like Olevia, and read user reviews of them at Epinions.com before buying.
