I have read the specs, but I was hoping for some real life people feedback...
TIA!

    Can't help you there, Nik.

    Had a look at the link... my feeling is if you want a display for photo editing then, on the step below the professional ones, the best are HP.

    New tech is sometimes a bit tricky about what it connects with and pairings have to allow for all the features to work as intended.

    Neil, HP's max size is 25".. I'm thinking 27" min and as soon as I get better desktop with dual graphics I'll be getting either second one or 30"...

    I'm not familiar with this technology, but it sounds like DRM in the f#*&g monitor. I would be wary. rolleyes1.gif

    Right. I just think that manufacturers should not be rewarded for imposing this crap.

    There is always analog RGB input :-), hard to control any content over that channel :-)
