"SUUUUweeeeeeet!" on September 9, 2004

Pros: Brightness of this screen is off the charts. Blows my 19" Planar away. Just a beautiful screen corner to corner. Looks perfect next to my 17" powerbook. Colors are best I've seen in an LCD. DVI connection finally.

Cons: Just the price. Cheesy 1 year warranty. Only had it 2 weeks- I hope it's reliable.

"Brilliant monitor!!" on April 1, 2005 by 199657710366057339589467585945

Pros: beautiful colors, very brght, amazing design, no dead pixels

Cons: makes my powerbook's screen look dim!

Summary: I just bought this amazing monitor today and I couldn't be more satisfied with it. Half-Life 2 has never looked more real! It really looks like the screen is just levitating in thin air, which is awesome. That is because the only part of the stand that is visible is the base, which just looks like a random slab of alumninum sitting on my desk. Sure it was expensive, but if you can afford it, it is worth every penny!!

"Perfect Widescreen Display" on August 9, 2005 by Josephacote

Pros: Huge screen, slim bezel, beautiful display of colors, single cable to display is a great idea, very bright

Cons: My 17'' PowerBook looks a little dim next to this gorgeous screen

Summary: I use apps that require a lot of space on a day to day basis, (i.e. Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, Adobe Photoshop, Fireworks, flash, etc...) so this display is perfect for letting me spread out my work and have plenty of extra room to multitask. It's perfect for kicking back and watching a movie in full widescreen too. It's very easy to set up and use.

My only "con" (which is really a plus) is that it's soo bright that it makes my 17'' PowerBook look dim.

It has absolutely no dead pixels. All around amazing piece of work. Apple has done, but once again, an amazing job with this display.
