23" ACD vs. Dell 2408WFP

[tcmacintosh]

I cant decide between a second hand ACD or a new Dell 2409.
Which one is better?
I want to link it up to my unibody macbook pro.

If you can, go for the 24" LED Cinema Display. I just got one and it is incredible.

If you just have the choice of those two though, I'd pick the Dell. It has way more inputs and is a much more modern design.

Yeah, I think I will end up just getting the 24" ACD because I think if I bought the Dell or the old ACD I will just regret not getting the new one.

Don't get the Dell, I've got it and don't like it. The monitor is wide gamut and even with color calibration they tend to make your eyes bleed on reds and blues though I suspect it depends on what kind of work you're going to be doing with it.
