also i will think about that. it is just that in oz we have very very few mac options around. and what is around is either out of date or very very expensive.
plus, i could always go formac. the thing is that the only 2 pc companiesi would consider are sony (my current CRT maker) and samsung for its thin edges.
oh well. thanx for the tip.
Yeah, I know what you mean about conservation of PCI.
It just seems that the pixels/$ ratio on Apple monitors is way off until you calculate the size. If you don't need the physical size, you save a ton buy using 3rd party displays.
I'm looking at 3 of the above Dells to replace my current 3 displays, although thea do offer a pricier slim-edge display that would be much more 'seamless'.
A monitor is a monitor unless you have color precision or gaming needs, and you can save a lot to throw at audio gear buy buying even generic panels. Many of the current crop are the same panels and gear with different plastic shells.
'Course if you're showing your studio to prospective clients, those Apple displays may pay for themselves in 'this guy has sexy gear, let's hire him.'
