I have a Dell 24"landscape rotatable, and it's a peach.
The only odd thing about it is that the two USB ports are on the right
side of the monitor (which would be a handy place to plug in a mouse).
BUT when it rotates, one has to unplug from them because there is not
room underneath. If the USB ports had been recessed this problem could
have been avoided. Result is I just don't use them.
But I love it. I can work on a whole orchestral score at once - OR work
on long scroll passages at once. I don't know how I ever worked without
one.
But - bigger would be even better!

I'd like to request some advice about monitors.
I am looking at buying a new monitor to replace my desk-hog, an old
Apple Studio 21" CRT. The Dell 24" LCD (2407WFP) looks appealing,
especially because it has a stand with 90° built in to the stand.
In the old days.
My 2c: I have the Dell 24" model and it works a treat. It's so much
better being able to see a score in portrait mode. So much more
productive.
I would highly recommend this model. I also would invest in a second
monitor as well. 22" LCDs are about AUS$320 over here now, so they'd
be even cheaper in the US. Then you can have all your palettes on the
2nd monitor, and leave the Dell to display just the page.
