Are you a graphics professional? If not, why not get the Apple 20inch monitor? Cheaper than that one by $100. I am no technical person but here are the specs. Perhaps someone smarter than me can tell you which would be the best.
the lacie photon 20" in the uk is approx £90 cheaper than the apple 20". plus the photon means i don't have to pay the extra £100+ on a DVI to ADC connector for my PB.
