I've got a Dell U2711 which also has the same panel as the Apple Cinema displays and yet was only about 2/3 of the cost...

3 years warranty (though i've heard they replace your broken display with returned ones which might or might not be faulty) , color calibrated and no-dead-pixel-guarantee...

Edit: Ah, seems the display mentioned by parent has LED backlighting compared to CCFL in mine - of course i'd prefer the LED too ;)

I wouldn't be so sure on the LED/CCFL issue.

LED backlighting is still a consistency nightmare, with bleed and clouding being the norm.

Be sure to do a coupon google search if you're using the Dell Store. Everything that I've bought from there has had some 10% or 15% discount voucher which works ON the sale price also

Amazon in the US has this model for sale for $650 now. Great price for a great panel.

How does it work with the Apple Dual Link display adapter?

With modern monitors you might as well skip the dongle and go DisplayPort.

Sorry I haven't tried one, just Dual-DVI to a Linux box.
