LED's are also what back monitors. Like the one I have right here built into
my Macbook Pro. Most of them I see on the B&H site seem to still be LCD
though still. I don't know if I should want one or the other.
But I normally like to have what Steve Jobs was having.
And Apple seems to have gone the way of the LED.
Real shiny ones. Glossy F Ferrotyped!
Cibachromes!
But no way I'm spending four figures or close to it on a monitor.
Mine does not even have to be that big.
I'm not designing pix to put in the Grand Central Terminal.

Is there a reason to want to have a huge monitor?
They all seem huge to me.
I'd feel like I was in a Sci Fi movie.
Why not get a big hologram floating in front if me instead!?!?
