[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1934604, member: 131855"] I'm going to suggest that you either go somewhere and look at the monitor or buy it from a vendor with a good return policy. This is not a knock against that monitor or LG in general. I say that about all monitors because people's monitor preferences seem to vary considerably. That monitor looks pretty impressive. I have an older LG monitor that I've used for several years. I decided on LG because we have one of their TVs and liked the color. I like the fact that it has multiple input ports allowing me to easily connect more than one computer and switch among them by switching the input selector. There are two issues with my LG that may not be an issue for you. 1 I originally bought my LG as a secondary monitor for my iMac. The monitor is an ultrwide that has a different aspect ratio than the iMac screen has. Annoyed me a lot more than you would think although it's less of an issue now that it's the primary monitor for a Mac mini. 2. Accessing the settings menu for my monitor is accomplished by a rocker switch on the underside of the monitor. This switch also controls power on/off. This drives me nuts as I find the switch awkward to reach on a crowded desk. I couldn't tell for sure if they kept the same setup on your monitor. [/QUOTE]
