Maybe now I can upgrade my lucite 20" one dead pixel LCD with a nice 23" aluminum one!

 

[ravenvii]

WOW, the 30" is now actually sort of affordable with the EDU pricing!

 

[combatcolin]

£100 cheaper, problem is that the big Dell 24" is now £600...

Im happy with mine, but of course i would have preferred an Apple - shame there so expensive.

 

[ipacmm]

Nice to see the price drop...still too much for the 30" for me to upgrade to.

 

[iDM]

This is such exciting news with these prices drops all three of them are still completely out of my range! Sweeeetttt!

 

[DHagan4755]

The 20-inch display is too much. It's should $599. Oh, but I know why they won't price it that low...because then it and the Mac mini would undercut the iMac...

 

[EricNau]

The 20" still needs to be cheaper...

 

[Aarow]

This is such exciting news with these prices drops all three of them are still completely out of my range! Sweeeetttt!

Agreed.

 

[snkTab]

I think it's time for a second 23", don't you?

 

[woodsie]

good but could be better.

 

[adroit]

Does it worth switching two 19" for one 23"? I just thought that the price of apple's 23" is becoming much more affordable now.

 

[ZildjianKX]

23" inch still can't touch the price of the superior Dell 2305FPW, pitty. Most sales put it below $800, which is ironically the price of the Apple 20" LCD.

Happy to see the 30" Cinema display go down in price... I wonder how many years it will be before you can pick one up for less than $1000.

 

[jiv3turkey748]

its about tine they lower the price of the 30"

 

[Stella]

The price of the 20" is way too high - $999 is too much and there are better and cheaper displays around.

Your paying for the Good Looks.

I am surprised we didn't see more of a drop (and a few months ago). Only a few hundred more on the 23" and they finally would have been in $ competition with the Dell 24" that's been the subject of so many threads here. I am also a little disappointed to not see the panels moved to ones that provide a better black performance. Ah well, the Sony G400 CRT continues to chug along.

now that 23 incher is looking pretty good.

Especially with a student discount!

They are actually approaching normal prices!

 

[joeboy_45101]

Great news about the price drops. I just hope they can keep coming down and into my price range. I guess my Xerox monitor will have to do for now.

I just bought a Dell 2405FPW (1920 x 1200, I believe) along with a Dell Dimension 9100, 2.8 GHz. DVD-ROM. 16x Dual Layer DVD+/-RW, 2 GB DDR2 RAM, 250 GB HDD, 100w Dolby 5.1 Stereo Surround Speakers, etc. for about $150 more than the Apple 23" Cinema. Lucky me!!

 

[Diatribe]

iGary is gonna be happy about this...

 

[Xephian]

Nice, the 30" is now only $2200 w/ educational discounts.

 

[Lepton]

Where the heck is the 17"??

20" Cinema - $799 (no change)
23" Cinema HD - $1299 (-$200)
30" Cinema HD - $2499 (-$500)

The 30 inch now costs what my 22 inch Cinema Display cost me a few years ago. Cool.

Need to get one I think.
