NewEgg has very good pricing on their open box 23" Apple Cinema Displays at $709.

BTW - Apple still treats this as new and will repair under warranty and the unit is eligible for the Apple Care package.

I've copied some posts from another thread (can't figure out how to link it) but the general consensus is the Apple monitors have been superseded by new technology.

wide gamut monitors?

Which monitors are those?

Eizo, LC, NEC, the new Dell "HC" screens, et. al.

Stay away from the apples as they're old tech. I don't know why they don't upgrade them, but.....

I have X-Rite Pulse Color Elite system and have plotted the visible gamut of the Apple Cinema Display's and the will display nearly the full Adobe 1998 spectrum without suffering from some of the other problems that high gamut LCD's suffer from.

I'm considering the Dell 2407 HC and would be interested in what problems you're referring to. Dell wants $600 and it seems like a fair price for a good quality monitor. A friend has two and says they've been problem free.

I'm watching your avatar running around on my Apple and it looks fine. Usually my photos don't run anywhere.
