i love it. even though it has lower specs than some budget displays its all about seeing is believing. i wish i could have bought one that brand new but cant afford. the reason its more expensive than most displays is because its high end. it uses different sets of transistors than the budget ones so quality over quantity. had it because my dell 207wfp wasn't doing well with my mac pro. so apple was my solution.
I have researched and compared to different LCD display for value, quality, durability and "beauty". You just can not go beyond this one, you just have to have it to experiencing what I am talking about. It is sharp. VERY sharp and bright easy on your eye, HUGE and beautiful power on or off on your desk. GREAT for professional Graphic Design artist, or ANY heavy computer user. Its like comparing American car to German or Japanese car~!!!!!
Monitor is almost perfect. Games - excellent. Photograpy - excellent. Suppoted by PCs, but not always compatible with graphic cards in text mode (BIOS). Not recognizeable by Windows, and not configurable by windows too. Use ColorVision Spyder or other hardware tool.
