lcd monitor: 120hz worth the extra $$?

No, not unless every florescent light you see you can detect it flickering. If you can, then yes. But most people can't. So save the money.

Here is why. The human eye can only see so many "frames" or "cycles" per second. That number varies between each person, and also varies on what your looking at. For an interesting article on the whole thing, read here:

Any screen that can do 80-100 hz is probably going to be fine for you.
