    Best 20'' display on the market. But that's just one Mac fan's opinion. I saw the 23'' in the store last night and couldn't take my eyes off of it. Pricey...but pretty

                        but the 23" is better

                          The numbers on that display, frankly, suck for $1299.

                          Brightness (typical)
                          230 cd/m2

                          Contrast ratio (typical)
                          350:1


                          Compare that to a Viewsonic 19" DVI monitor for $300 less (MSRP)which has

                          250 cd/m2 (better)

                          Contrast ratio 500:1 (better)

                          Sorry Mac guys, you lose again. The only distinguishing feature is the weird aspect ratio.

                          Try again

                            Screw that ugly ass viewsonic, if you own a mac, that means you took the extra step in your computer setup, don't stop with your computer, your monitor should match, it's a fucking gorgeous monitor, well constructed and it's worth the extra money, especially the 23" one!

                            Support Apple or else we'll all be stuck with Winbloze machines!

                              Speaking of Apple Cinema displays I came across this sweet deal on a 22" today, it's refurbished but hell it has the same warranty as a new one

                              http://www.dealmac.com

                              there's the link I think it was selling for $1199, that's a pretty sweet deal if you ask me.
