OT:  Display Recommendations, please?

My display has gone to meet the great screensaver in the sky and I'm currently working with my laptop and a magnifying glass.
I'd be greatfull for any recommendations for a replacement 20" LCD screen based upon your experiences. If you've used a colourimeter to set it up maybe you can let me know how that went in terms of 'linearity' of the RGB - in other words did they track each other or was one colour or two on a different curve.
Key requirements are:-
- 20"
- Ability to adjust RGB independently
- Brightness/Contrast in the region of 300/800:1
- dot pitch at least 0.255
- no less than 1280 x 1024
- 8 bit
- DVI and VGA
Dell looks good so far.

Richard...
Many thanks.
I eventually bought a 20" widescreen NEC monitor. It's 16:10 aspect ratio is a good fit for my camera images at 3:2 (15:10)
Resolution is 1680:1050
I'm still getting used to it but so far so good.

  • Im having trouble connecting my macbookpro to the tv. im using a mini display port to hdmi adapter, when i switch tv/video to hdmi on the tv nothing pops up, and i dont have the arrangement tap on the display settings, please help!

    im having trouble connecting my macbookpro to the tv. im using a mini display port to hdmi adapter, when i switch tv/video to hdmi on the tv nothing pops up, and i dont have the arrangement tap on the display settings, please help!

    I've found that the order of operations, so-to-speak, can be important when hooking up mini display port to HDMI.  I have the most success with the following operations in this order:
    1)  Plug HDMI cable into mini displayport adapter (the cable should not be plugged into either the TV or the computer at this point)
    2)  Plug the mini displayport end of your new super-cable to the computer.
    3)  Plug the HDMI end into your TV.
    4)  Switch inputs on your TV to the proper input.
    5)  If still nothing on the TV, try a different HDMI port on your TV.
    Hopefully this helps!  Good luck.

    Thanks, A Brody.  Don't know what the PRAM battery is.  Here are more details of the fault ... Although I've had the iMac for 5 years this may be the first time I've tried copying a video recording onto the DVD drive (I've made lots of CD copies without a problem).  The folder and files all seem to be reproduced in identical order on the disc but my domestic DVD player cannot make sense of the recording, unlike the original source DVD from which the files originated.  The drive has always been noisy but I've never assumed it shouldn't be!  Does this fit your PRAM battery theory?  If so, please explain more.  Thanks.

  • HT1338 When I try to link my Macbook to my TV, I cannot find the "Arrangement" button that would lead me to "Mirror Display". Please help!

    When I try to link my Macbook to my TV, I cannot find the "Arrangement" button that would lead me to "Mirror Display". Please help!

    The Arrangement tab only appears in System Preferences Displays pane if a second display is recognized by the system (the OS).  So it seems like your MacBook is not seeing the TV as being connected.
    Describe the video connection between MacBook and TV...  What type of video out port does your MacBook model have?  How is it converted to the type of port used on the TV?

  • Display recommendations

    I've got a G4 AGP -- I think it's a Gigabit Ethernet model -- which needs a new monitor. I'd like to get a 19" LCD flatscreen. The machine is 400 mhz has both ADC and VGA connectors.
    Does anyone have any display recommendations they'd like to share? Or anything I should avoid when shopping for a display?
    Thanks in advance!
    G3 beige (OS 8.6), G4 AGP and TiBook, G5 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

    I also have the same computer with VGA and ADC and want to set-up a second monitor. My OS is Tiger. I got an adaptor to go to the ADC port, but it still only shows one monitor at a time. In System Preferences, I don't have the Arrange panel either.
    Can someone help???

    I cannot open my ipad 2 after update to ios 7..only the apple logo keeps on displaying..please help..

    Power-cycling or connecting to iTunes didn't fix the issue.  However the iPad did restart, trying to install the update but it didn't complete and received a error once again.  And now the iPad is stuck on the update screen with the progression bar beneath the apple.
    The error reads, "The iPad could not be updated.  An unknown error occurred (6)."

  • HT1339 ipod display says please wait very low battery

    what can i do to restore my ipod classic?

    Really
    Which model of iPod do you actually have?
    An iPod Classic does not use iOS 3.1.3 (as noted in your tags) or any other iOS.
    If the display says "please wait, low battery" - have you charged it up?
    Why do you want to Restore your iPod, whichever model it actually is?
    To Restore and iPod, connect it to iTunes, look on the iPod's Summary pane and select Restore. Note that Restore will delete everything from your iPod.
    iPods can be Reset, which often sorts out minor problems. How to Reset depends which iPod you have.

  • External monitor recommendations please!

    I'm switching from my troublesome iMac to the Macbook Pro - I've had so much trouble with my iMac display that I'm not sure about buying the Apple Cinema Display.
    I was wondering if there are any graphic designers out there that could recommend a good monitor?
    Thanks!

    The new 24" ACD has no printing issues, at least not all the samples that I've spec'ed for purchase, installed, configured, and maintained. Not <one> client's complained about a printing inaccuracy issue, BUT- there are so many variables- the skill& experience of the operator, the quality of the files, the accuarcy and quality of the CMS (Control Management System) that's being deployed, used, and updated, the quality of the output devices, the quality of the paper/substrate, etc., being used... in other words, the 24" ACD (glass screen), is capable, when calibrated properly and used within the rest of the printing process correctly of the most repeatable, flexible, broadest color-gamut capable, overall most accurate display available in any consumer-available display... there ar equals to the new 24" ACD, namely the Eizo, Barco, and, when set up VERY carefully and specific to the display, a few of the NEC displays. The difference is that the Apple's construction quality is generally markedly better than the others, for WAY less money!
    THAT equals APPLE ACDs for my clients, in addition to, when it's finally available, the NEW (please, APPLE where for art the new 30" ACDs?), 30" ACD.
    Best,
    Charlie

  • Cost Center Display - Urgent Please

    While data entry, a particular expense range GL Account (Non Recovered VAT) is not displaying the Cost Center field. I have checked the Field Status Group of this particular GL wherein Cost Center is field is optional and not suppressed. Even the posting keys settings are perfect. On the other hand, another expense Account (Vehicle Maintenance  A/c) has the similar Field Status Group and for this account the entry screen displays the Cost Center field rightly.
    Please let me know where else can the input screen for a given GL Account is impacted, apart from Field Status Grp, Posting Key and Account Group.
    This is a Production issue and requires immediate attention and help.

  • Looking for laser printer recommendations (please read!)

    I couldn't find a spot that fit this question and although I may not receive any answers here, this is a very active forum with members who are unafraid of new technology, so here's letting one rip...
    OK, I've not had a laser printer in a number of years - when my beloved LaserWriter II NTX gave up the ghost. I find that I am lately, however, printing more and more text-only or text-heavy documents at home and going through black ink cartridges like a hungry lumberman through flapjacks. Although I've not looked into laser technology for years, I am wondering if it may not be more economical to print these pages on a 'personal' laser printer (I know that toner cartridges are not cheap, either, but they are less expensive, from what I've read, than using inkjet to print text-heavy documents) than to continue racking up rebate dollars by selling my soul for black ink cartridges.
    So I am looking for a laser printer that can handle about 2,500-4,000 pages a month AND (here's the kicker!) have automatic duplex printing capabilities... I've never had this ability on a laser printer but I understand it's available on some models these days.
    I'm not looking for an 'office capable' printer - maybe more like a 'small office'? No real need for Ethernet, yet, if it's a standard feature, I would certainly use it. A small footprint would be nice.
    As I wander into the local Office Depot I am overwhelmed by the choices and yet stupefied to find that the 'hang tags' on many of the models don't really give too much information - page one can expect from a cartridge, connectivity options, duplexing capabilities (I seem to find none, yet am certain that I've read of their existence).
    So my criteria:
    1. monochrome
    2. PostScript emulation (unless CUPS supports lasers? It'd difficult to tell by the ad hype yet Apple does seem to have drivers or, at least, Brother and HP laser printers). I don't want to be limited to 72 typefaces...
    3. automated duplexing
    4. small footprint
    5. more economical to operate than an inkjet at 2,500-4000 pages per month
    6. networkable, though served through another CPU via USB is fine
    7. brand is not important - as long as reliability is high (and, like Brother, for instance, is supported by Apple)
    Please leave a message if you should have ANY suggestions or, if you can point me towards a website with a good overview of what's available (and with actual tests would even be better!) I would be very appreciative.

    Jamie,
    I just wanted to thank you once again for your suggestion of the HP LaserJet 1320. I picked one up last week at Office Depot and, after I receive my $50 mail-in rebate, my total cost will have been $139.99!
    The printer itself had an 'instant savings' of $100 off the SRP of $399.99 (and - for those who might be interested - this instant savings continues until June 30 - see the HP website for details.), bring it down to $299.99; I had an $100 Office Depot 'rewards' card plus a $10 'instant off' coupon from the previous week, bringing it down to $189.99 and there was a mail-in rebate for $50 (which, according to the paperwork, I can expect within 6 weeks) so... I was able to get a $400 printer for less than $140 (+ tax, of course).
    Still, even with $14 tax, I have to assume that I would have paid at least as much in shipping AND I only had to drive for less than 5 miles, spend 20 minutes explaining why I did not want or need either the extended warranty or the Super Special Laser Printer Official Office Depot Very Special Customer Service Box (a cable, some paper, and a few other doodads for $60) and now I've printed a couple of hundred sheets and love the thing.
    Had it not been for your recommendation, I likely would have forgotten the $100 Office Depot card until it expired and would not have sought out the printer there in the first place.
    It's such a warm and fuzzy feeling to get such a deal on such a terrific little printer... and, so, I thank you, again.

  • Recommendations;;; Please help me

    We would like to build necessary monitors around fast refresh that we are doing for one product.
    To start, we have a counter table in database 1 which gets refreshed to database 2 via a dblink from database 1 periodically, every 15 minutes.
    we have a materialzed view log table created to capture the incremental in database 1, which helps in fast refresh.
    We would like to be sure we get alerted and anticipate of any overlap or taking longer time to refresh. The objetcive is to be proactive.
    Could you please share the recommendations to best monitor.
    database 1 is in 11gR2 , Enterprise Edition (11.2.0.1)

    Greetings,
    I'm retiring my old 17in Apple Studio Display. Currently I'm also using the 20in Apple Cinema Display (Clear casing using ADC). My mian usage is for photography.
