Pros: Beautiful image quality, stunning design, PC-compatible, integrated USB and FireWire ports

Cons: A bit pricey, limited adjustability options, no home entertainment video inputs

Apple's latest line of Cinema HD Displays (available in 20in., 23in. and 30in. models) ushers in a renewed spirit of cross-platform cooperation. Thanks to a DVI connector on every Cinema HD Display, PC users can now enjoy the fabulous design and stunning image quality that Apple aficionados have been luxuriating in since the iMac. The 23in. Cinema HD Display, in particular, is a looker. It's so lovely that we're willing to forgive its high price (£1,318.30 ex. VAT, or £1,549 inc. VAT), limited adjustability and lack of video inputs. In fact, hooking it up to a comparatively hideous Intel-based PC feels like such a crime that we're beginning to suspect an ulterior motive on Apple's part.

Just Simply Amazing

Pros: Exceptional clarity, even color, strong backlight

Cons: price, power brick

I love this monitor.
The ergonomics make it easy to look at, take up a minimal amount of desk space, and it is just a crystal clear display.
The usb and firewire ports on the back are very uselful especially for my iSight that is perched on a magnetic stand atop the monster display.
the only thing i really dont like about this display is that you have a powerbrick you have to have near the display do to a short cable (the end of the cable branches to USB, firewire, and the powerbrick connector.)
if i was put in the situation of buying it again or not, i would defenitly buy this one again. infact, if i ever have another 2500 laying around... i will be adding a second 30, and making my powermac a dual display masterpiece.
