OK, I need two monitors - I can't afford a 30".
So I nearly went for 2 x 20" cinema when I discover.... the Viewsonic VX910 19" which is half the price. I happen to mention this to my apple store bloke and of course he goes into one about how amazingly sharp the image on an Apple display is etc So, how do I judge the image of each without my being able to line one up against another in a shop and compare them? I am not sure what specs of a monitor I should be caring about here - there seem quite a few. If they have the same resolution and they are both LCD isn't it reasonable to assume that they would be very similar in terms of image sharpness, luminosity etc Or do Apple have something the others don't that it is worth shelling out the considerably extra dosh for? Any info much appreciated J -------------------- Macbook Pro 2 ghz/15"/10.3.4/1 g RAM/x2 monitors/Logic Pro 7.2/Ableton Live 5.0/Reason 3/Fireface 800/PSP Vintage Warmer/Roland JD800/Roland SH101/Arturia Moog Modular/Epiphone Firebird 7/Guitar Rig/Dynaudio BM5a monitors.

I have an Apple 20 inches. I compared it with others including Lacie and none resisted the comparison. Apple is superior to all. Only I regret a thing, that it has not bought the one of 23 inches.
