Big is beautiful

This weekend, I got a new Apple 23" Cinema HD Display. The thing is incredible -- Apple really does it right as far as design, but the real deciding factor for me was their attention to how their products are displayed in the store. Folks at the store are usually clueless about Apple products (as Laurel often finds), but at least they set the displays up well. Of course, I would rather have bought a non-Apple product, but every monitor in the store was set up so poorly that I couldn't rationally purchase one. The Apple display was always 100% crisp because it was tweaked to look that way -- and I was able to mimic that same tweaking at home.
