You are most certainly correct! The monitor is the second most important thing in any computer setup and it is wise to invest in a top quality display.
I just upgraded from an LCD backlit 22 inch monitor to a 24 inch ViewSonic that is LED backlit unit. I've owned Trinitron, AOC and ViewSonic displays back to the CRT days when the largest size was 14 inches and, WOW, what a difference today. The Sonys and ViewSonics were the best in those days and their three year, non-limited, factory replacement warranties never had to be used! I suspect that given the service life of LEDs over flourescent tubes, my new one will last longer than I do! :)

The only real skill I am aware of is being able to pick parts that work well together. All the information to do that right is up online today too.
