[Avid-L2] Re: OT: Good monitor for MacBook Pro

Thanks Jeff -

interesting way the Apple monitor is described on their site. First description:

"The LED Cinema Display is the first display designed specifically for the MacBook. Three easy connections allow you to extend your desktop, charge your MacBook and access a world of USB peripherals."

Second description:
"Connect the LED Cinema Display to your new computer, and it's like upgrading your screen to first class. The 24-inch LED-backlit widescreen display adds 1920 by 1200 pixels to your workspace, giving your work more room to impress. And its glossy finish makes graphics, photos, and video appear in rich colors and deep blacks."

The second clarifies the LED backlit deal...my bad as I assumed LED, etc.......checking out the Samsung now...
