 it's still the best monitor out there May 16, 2010
Melissa Toledo
for professionals who need true accurate color for either web or print work...there's no other monitor out there that compares to the apple cinema display. this is a non-glare monitor with an even picture from top to bottom.
amazing...but get the extended warranty November 22, 2008

my 23" cinema display worked beautifully right up until 3 weeks after the 1 year warranty was up and then it just went black. I was forced to have Apple send it to there repair people for a flat fee of $450. I do find it rediculous that a high end product like this lasted just 13 months till it died. I guess I got the short end of the stick on this one. I really should have gotten the extended warranty which would have covered it for 3 years. But I figured I have had TV's last forever.
As a monitor, it is one of the best. We use it as a our color corrected monitor for high end photography for major ad agencies and magazines worldwide.
I just wish it did not suddenly go black, apparently due to some kind of inner power circuit. And then had no choice but to use there "flat" $450 repair. Which by the way, has only a 90 day warranty from the new repair.
So get the extended warranty and enjoy it.
 Was a great monitor, but now outdated and soon to be replaced. November 18, 2008

This monitor lacks a lot of features, and it makes sense because it was released in mid 2004. Apple has also officially DISCONTINUED it if you look on their web site. I'd encourage people to wait until Macworld '09 in SF this January, where they will likely introtuce new models with more competitive features (wide gamut, better viewing angles, contrast ratio, etc). If you need a monitor right now I'd look into NEC's high end 24" and 26" monitors.

Apple monitors are seriously overpriced. It is a decent monitor, just much too expensive. For your money there are better alternatives.
If you want a good photo editing 24in LCD look at the NEC 2490WUXi. It is about 200 more but the screen is much better. It has an A-TW polarizer which increases the viewing angle and comes with an internal LUT for better calibration. Colorcomp help insure even colors across the the screen. Check out Reviews and you will find it is a pro quality monitor that matches monitors 2-3x the price. There is also a 26in version (2690WUXi) that is Wide Gamut, for those than need it. It is about 100$ more for that version. There are "spectraview" packages that include a one eye calibrator and NEC's software. Check out Hardforum.com for LOTS of good info on the subject.

I have one at work (I'm a graphic and web designer for an Ad agency) and now one at home and love them both. Both were purchased here at Amazon in August '08. The one at work was purchased to replace a 2004 model 23" Cinema HD (same model, just older) one that was stolen. That one had an obvious pink cast to it that was hard to correct even with calibration, but both of the new ones are beautiful and quite color "neutral." The 1920x1200 feels like a lot of room to work but not "too much" ...if that's even possible. If you can afford it, go for it.
