Very interesting. So now we actually have three sources for monitors based on the same
"technology" ...
Apple Cinema Display
Sony Premier Pro 23" Wide Flat Panel LCD

Philips 230W5VS

I wonder how the "other parts of the system" compare. Things like the drive electronics,
driver software, and so forth.
Is one of them actually better than the other two for "graphics work?"

In his public introduction of the new Cinema display, Steve Jobs said that
one distinguishing characteristic of the screen is that Apple has a second
round of QC checks before branding. Dunno.
