Apple LED Cinema Display (24" flat panel)
Nice screen
Written by JF from Bristol

lovely deep blacks and vibrant colour, but only for users of very up to date hardware. Until the DVI to Mini Displayport adaptor unit at Circuit Assembly gets released
I imagine this won't support the DRM restrictions this screen introduces for DRM'd iTunes videos. Still, good to know it's on the way!20 of 26 people found this useful

I love this screen!

I originally bought myself a macbook (aluminium) in February, and when i worked on a friends imac I loved the screen size and clarity. This screen gives me the combo of both. Plug the laptop in, I basically have an Imac, then unplug it and off to college etc. cable length complaints are a bit unfair, cable is approx 1m long, dont see a need for anything longer, complaints about glare are again picky. It is pricey, but worth it. Oh and easy way around not being able to turn screen off at night is to use energy saver settings and turn display sleep to 1 min before you head to bed.

I totally agree with AP from London on all counts and share the Mac Pro under the desk problem!
I found an extension lead at Circuit Assembly eStore.39 of 40 people found this useful

Awesome...

This is probably one of the best displays I have owned!
Very easy to hook up to your MacBook (new line-up) without the need of fidgeting around with extra cables...but please not that this is really being sold as a MacBook "accessory" i.e. as an external display for your new MB.
Don't bother buying this for any any other use!
Picture quality & Design are simply..well, Awesome!32 of 37 people found this useful

Good looking AND functional

Even unpacking the box is a pleasant experience! Apple have paid a lot of attention to making sure it arrives in pristine condition - there is protective film over the body of the screen to prevent scratches etc.
Set-up is easy, you really don't need to use the manual. The inclusion of a Magsafe connector to link up to your macbook is genius as it saves the need for another socket - with so many peripherals power sockets are at a premium for me! Although, the cable comes from the side of the Magsafe connector (rather than straight out as a usual Magsafe connector on the power pack) which means it causes me a problem running the cable to the back of my desk without a loop with my protective case installed on my Macbook - but that's a minor issue.
The 3 USB ports are handy, and are helpfully located on the back of the screen - some might say this is a problem but, if like me, you have several peripherals which are plugged in permanently, this keeps them out of sight.
The image provided by the screen is brilliant - you have to turn the brightness down just a touch from the factory setting as it's like looking at the sun otherwise (it is really that bright!)... the image is crystal clear and sharp. I don't know if one should expect dead pixels with LED's but there aren't any anyway.
Overall, although pricey, this screen is second-to-none. Looks wonderful and performs brilliantly. Get one!48 of 52 people found this useful

My photos are alive

I bought this for home use, but it will also be of great use as a work station. Previously if you moved your powerbook, all cables had to be unplugged. Now its a doddle leaving keyboard etc plugged in, giving greater freedom than with a 24" imac. Also my photos have suddenly come to life, making me doubt the recent purchase of a new camera. Some photographer friends don't like the glossy screen, but i think its richer and more vibrant than LCD. Not only photos but dvds look fantastic, so the bedroom has taken over from the living room as a makeshift cinema. Next on my wish list is a 40" backlit LED perhaps for downstairs. At the end of the day its like no other monitor I have seen, putting LCD's into the shade, IT'S BRILLIANT!
