A good value display for your computer
Click to read the review
I’m fond of wide gamut high-end displays for photographers.
But sometimes a more basic display is in order for a 2nd monitor (for palettes and “stuff”) and/or just more screen real-estate.
And sometimes it's simply the added cost, which might need to be deferred until better times. At any rate, I keep getting asked “what about a good cheap monitor”.
I’ve been testing the Acer B243HL, and my evaluation is now published in Mac Performance Guide. At about $296 for a 24" display, it’s a very good option for those on a budget, or just those looking for a second monitor for palettes, etc.
Another good application is fixing the ergonomics of a laptop by adding a monitor, keyboard and mouse eg your own “docking station”.
