Computer Monitors

[StuartR]

I bought a Eizo CG 210 just as they changed to the new model, so I was able to save a good deal. You might still be able to find some of them 210s and they are nearly as good as the 211's. I switched to Eizo after the cinema displays I used broke several times. I was fed up. The difference between the Eizo and the Apple is not subtle. I thought it would be, but it is not. It is just much, much better. The illumination is much more even, the color fidelity is superb, the gamut is much larger, the monitor appears visually sharper, calibration tools work better because it is hardware integrated, there are more inputs on the monitor, it comes with screen shades to keep stray light off it, it rotates 90 degrees on the fly to be used in portrait mode, and last but not least, it has a 5 year warranty compared to Apple's 1 year.
It really is a class of its own.

As for Apple monitors they are cheap and good, but cannot be calibrated.

Since when??

I had no problems calibrating my Apple with the spyder..

You also have several built-in variations to choose from that can be tweaked..

I work with Lightroom and the Apple 23". It is calibrated with the Spyder. Some days ago I had an R-D1 shot printed at 60x40cm on an Epson 9800 Printer. The result was pretty much what I expected.
