I wanted one of these ever since I first laid eyes on it, but it was way out my price range so many years later I decide to track one down on the used market.
It still looks every bit as gorgeous as I remember it, sleek aluminium and an anti-glare coating on the panel (which at the time was best in class as most monitors at that time were cheap, nasty TN panels where as this had a better but more expensive IPS panel).
First thing to point out is that this is DVI only, not a problem for my because my ancient laptop only outputs DVI- but if you have display port/HDMI you'll need an adapter (I don't think this has HDCP, so no games consoles can be connected, although I haven't tried it).
Picture quality is really fantastic, even though the screen resolution is low compared to the 'retina displays' of today (1600x1024) the screen still looks great, especially as the screen size is fairly small so you get a high pixel density.
I am a photographer so colour accuracy is important to me. Once upon a time all photo studios used these screens (and some still do), and it calibrates really well giving very accurate colours.
The main reasons I got this screen were colour accuracy and looks, it was also a great buy in mint condition. If you have similar useage requirements to me, then don't hesitate to have a look.
it might not be as impressive as it once was, and the new thunderbolt display isn't as cutting edge as this one was, but I still recommend this monitor even if I do know that nostalgia has a large part to play in it's appeal.
If money is no object, there is no doubt as to which is the best monitor available.
