[QUOTE="mac57, post: 351677, member: 17052"] Looks great - nice monitor! This post inspired me to look up a few monitors for comparison. Here are a few key specs: Samsung 226 BW (the subject of this thread): - Brightness: 300 cd/m2 - Contrast: 1000:1 - Response Time: 2 ms - Resolution: 1680x1050 Viewsonic VP2130b (my current monitor): - Brightness: 300 cd/m2 - Contrast: 1000:1 - Response Time: 8 ms - Resolution: 1600x1200 Apple Cinema, 23": - Brightness: 400 cd/m2 - Contrast: 700:1 - Response Time: 14 ms - Resolution: 1920x1200 What do I conclude from this? Well, two things. From this small sample, I would have to say that the new Samsung is the standard bearer - that 2 ms response time is excellent! Second, Apple REALLY needs to update the Cinema line - it is starting to look "long in the tooth". [/QUOTE]
