Has anyone of you experience with the above mentioned widescreens?
Any problems or other things to be aware of? Any brand that has a good cost/benefit ratio?
I appreciate any feedback on this.

Thanks

427911 2006-02-07 04:24:00 Well, you gotta be keen, and well heeled.

According to PriceSpy, prices range from $1582 for a bottom-feeding HP up to $12,360 for a top level Viewsonic that comes with two handmaidens and a lifetime supply of Viagra. It would have to at that price!

Expect to pay up to $3000 for anything worth having, unless it is just for show of course, in which case the HP will do nicely.

Cheers

427912 2006-02-07 04:31:00 Apple's Cinema Displays (www.apple.com) have a good reputation. The 23-inch is NZ$2,485.00. While I don't own one, I've got a 20" iMac which uses a similar panel and the screen is great. maccrazy (6741)

What's wrong with the HP"s (23" WUXGA LCD )?
Are they not any good?

And can they be used for windows based computers?

Thanks

427914 2006-02-07 22:13:00 It should do provided you have a DVI output. You can read some reviews here: reviews-zdnet.com.com maccrazy (6741)
427915 2006-02-10 01:47:00 maccrazy!
I have looked around for a while now.

Below the screens I had a closer look:
Philips 23" 230WP7NS Widescreen LCD
HP 23" L2335 LCD
Viewsonic 27" N2750W Widescreen LCD TV
24 Dell 2405FPW 24 (Ultrasharp) Monitor
Apple Cinema Display 23-inch LCD

Taken the Apple out(cost), which one of the others would you go for?
Anyone else having some good or bad experiences with them?
Would be very nice to hear something!

Thanks

427918 2006-02-10 02:36:00 Dell and apple panels I believe are made by the same people plod (107)
427919 2006-02-10 05:23:00 As plod said, the actual panels in Apple and Dell displays are almost (if not) identical - there are other hardware differences - though Apple doesn't make a 24 inch Cinema display so the type of panels used in Dell's 24 inch display may be different. :) maccrazy (6741)
