Default Re: Why the big price for the Apple Cinema Displays?

Just to make sure we're on the same page, is the photo below the display we're both talking about? Model M9177LL/A?



I'm guessing they're using updated LG or Samsung

Brightness (typical) 300 cd/m2
Contrast ratio (typical) 700:1
Response time (typical) 14 ms
Pixel pitch 0.258 mm

It also has a port for the Kensington lock & provisions for a Vesa mount.

The usb/firewire hubs are a nice feature but I personaly would rather have it seperate...Or rather none at all. I have 10 in my case. 8 at back and 2 at the front.

I do like apple cable managment thats nicely taken care of.



Toronto- I was refering to the colour white. Id much rather have one in black. Actually if I got one I think Id get it paited matt black. It would look killer.



Anyway price difference seems smaller now.


I just wanted to see if they had any "special" technology or features that justified the price difference.



BTW what panels are they using now?


The one i have in this LG is a 8ms IPS, 1:400 16.8m colours 1680x1050 20.1"
