are you saying Im broke or something?

Sorry but you dont make money by waisting money.
Overpaying is no different then getting robbed.

Especialy overpaying for a product that is not even the latest technology.

As always you get your shit way off topic... :roll:


And what are you trying to get too? Macs are for the "rich"?

So big price = rich?


Im sorry but thats a fucked up way of thinking.


Lets say Im rich. Looking to purchase a screen. Does this mean I go and buy an Apple Cinema?

No. If Im rich Ill buy the best product.

The Apple Cinema display is not the best product. There are a lot of other higher spec displays out there.


So once again, what are you trying say?


What I implying with my topic is why is the big premium when its not the highest spec nor does it offer any significant features over the competition? I dont mind to pay to play, but why pay for no play?

They arent for you, most definatly.

These LCDs are part of their Pro-line. Pro being professionals who work on a Mac, make obsene amounts of money & dont mind to pay a bit more if it makes their lives easier and make their output a bit better. Creative pros arent generally known to be techies & their strengths lay in producing content.

What is your category for "best"? Tech specs? Awards? Conveniences?

Are BMWs the best cars in the world? RC & others may not agree with you.

I dont think the Cinema Dispalys are the "tech specs" best but I can appreciate where the premium goes too. For my personal application I'd still go for a Dell LCD. It has almost all the inputs I currently need without the price premium for conveniences I can live without & wont appreciate plugged into a PC.

Here's a link to a 2651" HDTV that costs $28 million. Does the hefty price tag warrant the screen size? Those who want to sit 550 feet away from it would appreciate it if they had the money.
