Decent LCD monitor
Pros
3 year warranty, bright display
Cons
Some backlight leakage, hard to calibrate colour to powerbooks, unable to adjust height or tilt..
Recommended it?
Yes
I picked up this LCD for $329CDN (after rebates) and thus far, I'm fairly happy with it. I made the mistake of dropping $40CDN for a DVI-D cable thinking that it would give me better display. Turns out that this monitor, DVI and VGA cables give basically identical results.
I'm using it as a 2nd monitor to my Power Book. Even after an hour of working on it, I can't get the colours to match. The 730B seems to be "hotter" and I can't get rid of it. Even with brightness turned all the way down, the monitor is still fairly bright.
Overall I'm happy about this, but beware that if you are buying this monitor because it supports DVI, you'll be disappointed to find that DVI ads little value (especially since you'll have to buy the cable separate).
