    Good LCD Monitor?

    I need a new monitor, and am interested in an LCD in the 22" - 25" range.

    Any first hand wisdom on the best buys for price and performance in this category much appreciated.

    Hi Sandy, I started a thread a while back on the same subject, have a look here for some comments http://www.hybridphoto.com/forums/showthread.php?t=198

    Still haven't got round to replacing mine, a friend has coaxed some more life out of my existing monitor.

    Apple just lowered the price of the fabulous 23" monitor. $899

    I've had a 20inch Apple Cinema display for about a year now and it is amazing, would love the 23 and if I won lotto would get the 24inch iMac (the display on the new 24inch iMac is the best looking display I have ever seen)

    I suppose these can only be used with Macs??
    What about PCs? I'm in the same position as Sandy and plan to replace this year.

    They will work on any computer with a DVI connector, which is now pretty common in Macs and PCs. I bought some of these for PCs at my office. They are very nice, and oh-so-sleek.

    At the current price the Apple 23" Cinema Display is the hands down winner. Take a look at Eizo's too but I don't think they have anything in that price range for that size.

    I have a 23" Cinema Display that is now pushing 3 and also 3 Eizo's ... all are steller performers.

    I gather from the responses so far that no one considers that any of the consumner type LCD monitors in the 22" - 24" range deserve any consideration? By that I mean the type of LCD monitors on would find at CompUSA or on ebay in the $350 - $600 range.

    We bought two of these monitors for our Sun Workstations. They have this nifty rotating feature so you can see a display in portrait mode my rotating the monitor. They seem to be pretty nice.
