"THE best monitor. Period."
Pros: HUMONGOUS display with perfect color and sharpness right out of the box with response times fast enough for the most demanding games and movies! And they throw in a USB hub and media card readers!
Cons: Runs REALLY warm; limited adjustment controls.
Summary: You can't ask for better than this monitor, if you can swing the cost. Even if you have a Mac, you'll be paying less than the cost of the Cinema Display, getting the EXACT same performance, and you get great extras like a USB hub and a 9-in-2 media card reader. Truly, there's nothing more fun than having your web browser open on one side of the screen and your e-mail client open on the other, and both pages are MUCH larger than even a legal-sized sheet of paper! And movies and games? Fuggedaboutit! If you've never gamed widescreen, you should! And it's taken the hairiest game scenarios I've thrown at it with aplomb. No tearing, no slowdowns, just pure adrenaline-soaked bliss! It would be nice if it didn't run so warm, though that's probably just an artifact of the TRULY bright backlight on the thing, and if you could adjust more than just that brightness on the on-monitor controls, but those are minor nits on the back of a magnificent beast! Do get this one if you can. Your computing experience will NEVER be the same!
