i also looking for a external display but my situtation is a little bit different
i am using a mbp17 with glossy screen and i loved it. i have no problems with the reflection or anything.
i am looking to add more estate space and will be using the external display side by side with my mbp when i am at home
right now i am tossed between the ACD 24" LED and other 24" IPS panels (samsung, philips, hp etc)
the apple seems like a good choice because it has the same matching glossy panel, LED and same black bezel. it also has mini DP and magsafe so i can easily hook it up. however its height cannot be adjusted so i am wondering if it is too low if i put side by side next to my mbp on mStand? it is also the most expensive option as I am considering cheaper alternatives
right now i would loved to hear some feedback from users who use a non-glossy display(be it the 23" ACD or other brands) side by side with a glossy MBP screen. any problems with using both glossy and non-glossy together?
