that is a good list... I know there are others, I personally use a pair of ZR2740w's... best $$$ spent ever... but for trading with multiple monitors the best kind are 4:3 aspect ratio and there are few vendors still making those... like NEC ... :)

from what I recall, chemo wasn't completely horrible for my mother... so I would advise your friend to take the chance and undergo chemo... all it will do is buy them time... my mom fought cancer for close to a decade and to be honest what kept her going was her positive outlook even though...
