ATTENTION TO THOSE READING db2's REVIEW!!! I'm sorry, but I became a PriceGrabber member just to refure db2's review because I felt it was gravely in error. After seeing this monitor at my local Apple dealer and falling in love with it (it was mounted to a wall, like a painting, and hooked up to a 12" PowerBook) I came home and read these reviews here. I was confused by db2's review so I took my...
