That's good to know--but the info I found today showed (I thought) that the Apple Cinema worked with PC as well. Ah---but just did some more searches on it---and found what you found--that it didn't 'play well' with PCs. Found enough about this to warn me away from it even with its glowing reviews. I'll look at this LCD--I'm trying to do my research before I need to--as my monitor is approaching the age of yours next year and I expect to replace it.

My Sony 21" CRT was on its last legs (couldn't hit the high and low
calibration points, type a little fuzzy, etc.). It was about five years
old, which others on this forum have advised is about the useful life. Last
week I bought the Samsung 213T, which is a 21.3" LCD. I calibrate with
SpyderPro, and it works well on the LCD, i.e., the prints (Epson 2200/IP6)
look like the monitor. It swivels so you can use it in portrait mode also.
I have it plugged into an analog output (digital card is on the way), and it
looks great. It has a native resolution of 1600x1200. I paid $800 at
BestBuy. I was thinking of the Apple Cinema 21", but it appears you really
need a Mac for that. Anyway, I'm happy and have some more desk room.
