Hi everyone.

Right now I am using a 22" samsung, which has color problems ( the infamous 226BW) I calibrated it pretty well but

now I am searching for a new screen. I would love a dual monitor setup, but my macbook won'T let me ( hell I would even buy a MBP but this won't work either) I will start to study Communication Design so Photoshop cinema 4D final cut , Logic-... all that

So you see I will need a big screen, getting a Mac Pro ist not an option, I will need something portable( I will Probably buy a new MBP anyways.) Also, a iMac + 24" ACD would be stupid because i will have a huge gap between those screens (the bezels are Huge) , wouln't it? I hate having 2 different sized screens, but maybe someone is doing it and it works quit nice (post a picture then ;)

So my Final question, what 30" Monitor would be the most bang for the buck, is it EIZO or maybe the old ACD? or maybe even HP ? I am looking for the best colors, and the brightest screen, good contrast and so on. maybe someone working with Photoshop /Cinema 4D/ Final Cut Pro/ Logic knows what monitor is the best (but.. please don't post anything upwards of 2000€(2500€) )
Thx in Advance
:D
