Every Mac made with a display has an HD screen. 720p is considered HD, and I think the MacBooks are 13xx by 768. In other words, 720p.

Most 20-23" monitors top out with a 1680x1050 resolution. Still HD.

The best you'll find on most monitors is 1920x1200, which is the computer format for what TVs call 1080p. Those TVs are 1920x1080. Computer screens are slightly taller (for reasons I don't get).

I've heard good things about Dells. Hard to go wrong with ViewSonic or Samsung as well.
