If you're gonna go for a 20" with a PC, why not get the Dell 2005FPW? It's just as well specd (if not slightly better), is cheaper, has full manual adjustment (colour/brightness/contrast), and 4 inputs.

It's great. I'm using it with an iMac G5, looks awesome. I could understand getting an Apple display to go with a PowerMac now the prices are better, but not for a gaming PC. The Dell screen would be your better bet IMO.

Holy s***! Try "£476.11" (just checked!!) inc. vat + shipping. UNREAL. There's no contest here!!!!

I paid £609 just a couple of months back (was still a good deal at the time), but this is amazing.

Hey,

I'm between macs at the minute so my 20in sits downstairs hooked up to the PC so we can use it for HL2 / CS / Doom3. Works perfect, looks amazing :)
