Default At last a photography friendly monitor!

A friend just purchased one of these - cost over $600AU for a 24" but it could be worth it. This is an Adobe RGB monitor with some good design points for designers and photographers - apparantly

It was a friend who bought it - not me (though I wish). Anyway, hopefully the price will drop in the near future.

Whoops. -10 for me on reading comprehension.

Now you just need to talk your friend into upgrading to an Eizo or something, then he can sell you that one at a discount, haha.

No good for me.. I sit with my laptop in the living room.. No chance to use an external monitor.
