Two Dell 20". I'd love Cinema Displays, just too pricey. I made sure to get the non-econo Dell's though so I'm quite satisfied. I just get confused people thinking I work on a PC. :/
I run a 23" ACD. I am happy with it, I do like it. However I think this will be the last. I decided I did not want to shell out more money for just a monitor. As the ACDs are JUST monitors, nothing more, nothing less.
There is much more selection and competitive pricing with 3rd party brands. It will be awhile before I need a new display(sans a disaster). When the time comes though I will start looking into other brands.

i use both, a 23" ACD and a 19" samsung.
I use the former for all the important stuff and the latter for displaying itunes etc, as its colours are awful, but is was cheap

I've got a 23" ACD with my Mac Pro and a 20" Acer for trivial little things to run on (but that isn't connected at all times).
Doublesight DS-263N and a (pre-owned) NEC MultiSync LCD2090UXi. Reasonably high quality and color-accurate for the cash, as I certainly won't be able to afford anything better while a student. Besides, I'm saving up for a RED Scarlet with Nikon lens mount. Also have a Huey Pro for calibration.
Not sure where my vote would really count but, I used to own a 22" Samsung LCD monitor, and my main reason for buying it was because it was cheap!
However, after a few months, the color just wasn't cutting it for me and I decided to bite the bullet and pick up a 30" ACD.

I've got a 19" Westinghouse 1680x1050 resolution for use with my Powermac G4 and my Macbook Pro. It's basically my primary monitor for my Macbook Pro though.
I have a Cinema Display connected to the MacPro. Can't go wrong with that
Same! Looks good and it has a good colour balance. Shame about the price, I would've liked to bought two.
20" apple display. Found someone who had one a little cheaper otherwise I wouldn't of gone for it. Was looking at other displays with same type of panel but they seemed to have mixed reviews and weren't hugely cheaper, and had used the apple display before so I knew what I was getting.
Two Dells; a 24" (in portrait mode for 1920 vertical pixels) and a 30" for most everything else.
Will add another small-ish Dell (22-24") one of these months.
Also run a 720p projector from my Mac Pro

I have a Planar PX2611W 26" display hooked up to my Mac Pro. Pretty happy with it once I got the settings tweaked properly and calibrated it with my EyeOne 2. One of the few panels I could find that can manage both reasonable color accuracy and good video performance without input lag. I only wish it had more inputs and a more versatile stand, but not too big of a deal.
The display is pretty much the same hardware as the Doublesight DS-263N. I spent a little extra on the Planar because their support and warranty are excellent.

two Acer 22" and a Dell 2408 hooked up to an MXO for color grading. Works for me. ACD's are overpriced, no HDCP, no other inputs. I'll pass thank you.
