• A must have for design professionals
  The 30" Cinema Display is THE display that designers, especially print designers, need, without any doubt whatsoever. After my original 22" Cinema Display suddenly died after 9 years of excellent use, I decided to upgrade to the 30" and I haven't looked back. For the first 3 days it seemed HUGE, but on the 4th day it began to feel normal to have this much screen real estate. I can view 2 web pages side by side, and most importantly, I can work on brochures and packaging at full size and see the whole thing.... more info

• Good but way OVERPRICED
  No doubt this is a gorgeous flat panel LCD. Wish it was available in a glossy non-matte finish. The problem is that this LCD is WAY overpriced. Think about it, for $1800 you can buy a 46-52'' LCD TV nowadays and your only getting a 30'' LCD here with no TV. With TV prices and technological advances, this LCD should be no more than $600 - $700 if you think about it. I would totally wait for prices to drop or for new models to come out. Apple is due to come out with new models soon.

• Perfect size, great quality.
  At first I thought this screen was going to be too big, but after a few days it felt just right. It's sharp and contrasty, and you can't really have enough screen real estate to keep multiple editor windows open. It does produce quite a bit of heat - hopefully Apple will come out with an LED lit version soon. Until then, this certainly beats the 23 inch, which was already a great screen. Apple uses high quality LCD panels and the image quality you get in return is very good. This is the perfect screen if... more info

• Stunning Picture on this Display, could use a refresh in some specs...
  Just got the 30" Apple Cinema Display, after agonizing for months on which brand/model to buy for a large desktop monitor. I've had this for 3 days now, hooked up to my 17" Mac Book Pro notebook, and my initial impression is that the picture is stunning, much better at home that when I've seen these on display at several other stores, including the Apple Store. The colors and brightness are amazing out of the box, and I still haven't had a chance to use a color calibration tool, waiting for a Huey Pro to... more info
