Does anyone know if the 20-inch Apple Cinema Display and the display in the 20-inch iMac are the same?

I have a 20-inch ACD running with my mini at the moment, but am planning to buy an iMac soon; I'm just wondering if the display will be any different.

According to Apple.com, the CD is very slightly brighter, and has a tiny bit better viewing angle (178* compared to 170*).

Physically they're the same size, and the same resolutions.

I really doubt you'd notice a difference.

If your thinking that you could use the iMac as a Monitor this isn't possible out of the box.

No. I have a mini and an ACD, and I'm thinking of getting an iMac and want to know if there's any difference in the display.

I think that's what I said before..
