23"...just ordered one...I think they are clearing the old 22's out at
around a grand.  The new 20"...which would be the same size as your Artisan
is at $1100...plus $350 for calibration...well under the $1800 prices that
I've seen for the Artisan.  The main difference is the incredible sharpness
of the apple monitors.  I can't even bear to look at text on my Lacie
anymore.  I end up proofing color on the Lacie and then moving the file to
the Apple to make sure I'm happy with what is there in detail.  Hopefully
when I get the new ICS software and Sequel hardware color will be good to go
on the apple LCD's.
