I’ve NEVER been a fan of matte displays and to be honest have found them offensive with their dull, mediocre, lifeless visual appearance and to be honest the matte surface seems to blur the sharpness of pixels, plus self illuminate/glow from both light thrown out from a displays backlighting combined with external environmental light hitting it from the front and although this maybe to such a fractional degree, it however has an impact on overall quality and contrast ratio which is severely hampered…

Therefore having the 27″ Thunderbolt Cinema Display with it’s LED backlighting for whiter whites (sounds like a washing powder advert) and the attractive glossy screen for superior contrast ratio – is a godsend and worth purchasing despite any niggles, admittedly some of which may be addressed in the near future with firmware & device driver updates!

Understandably the Thunderbolt Cinema Display won’t please everyone because a). some users may have to reposition the display if ‘strong’ external light is reflecting from it and distracting. This is down to laws of Physics and no technology can fully overcome it without a trade off/compromise – personally I’d opt for the repositioning rather than absorbing and ‘smearing’ a hue/glow over the entire screen’s surface, the subtle result from having a matte screen… and b). some users may not have printing equipment calibrated to match the screen or visa versa – in which case it would be worth getting a quality calibration device tool in order to set the Thunderbolt Display monitor so that printing equipment and monitor match, then job done! (although a calibration device should really be used on any monitor beforehand regardless of type for accurate results).

Back to the Thunderbolt Display and I could mention quite a lot about it even though I’ve not had it for very long yet (3 days). Therefore I’ll try and keep it short by listing it’s Good and Bad points instead:-

The Good Points

* The usual excellent Apple designing; looks stunning and very high build quality

* Beautiful big picture quality at 27 glorious inches

* That extra picture resolution of 2560×1440 lets you fit so much more information on the display, that you’ll probably never want to go back to anything lower afterwards.

* Massive bonus; you’re actually getting an additional Firewire 800 port, an additional Ethernet 10/100/1000 port and three extra USB 2 ports; all in addition to whatever ports your Mac is currently limited to – very handy indeed.

* It virtually turns your MacBook Pro/Air etc into an almost desktop equivalent in terms of having an envious big display as with desktops

* If you have a MacBook Pro/Air etc, then you’ll appreciate there being slightly less impact on back-strain as you’re not viewing a small screen that’s too-low-down as with laptops; firstly the Thunderbolt’s viewable LCD pixel-screen starts some 5 inches from the desk and then the whole screen is much higher due to its larger size.

* Future-Proofing & more flexible, i.e. If your considering this for a MacBook Pro/Air and are faced with the same question that most buyers will have; do I get the Thunderbolt Display or spend a little more and get a fully blown 27″ iMac along with it’s extra computing power and extra disk drive storage? Well the answer is simple… although a 27″ iMac is equally impressive, the Thunderbolt Display won’t go out of date nearly as quick as the iMac and it’s internal computer and therefore the Thunderbolt Display could be used with and last as long as several computers. Also if a computer/iMac develops a fault then the integrated display is tied-in with it and can’t be used separately if the computer has to be sent away for repairs… Do you see!

* This Display is actually ‘several’ things in one if you take all the above into account

The Bad Points

* Only in Bootcamp – the Apple Bluetooth keyboards ‘brightness’ control is not changing the brightness on the Thunderbolt Display when using a MacBook Pro in clamshell mode (works fine under OS X). This is no doubt a driver issue with the Apple Windows Support Software and will hopefully be resolved at some point.

* If running 3D applications/Games on the Thunderbolt’s Display only with Macbook in clamshell mode to divert all GPU power to the Thunderbolt Display, then I notice a frame-rate drop EVEN when setting and matching the Thunderbolts Display resolution virtually identical, say 1920 x 1200/1080 pixels to that of the MacBook Pro for a comparison analysis. I don’t know what the issue is here and only hope that this too will be addressed at some point soon with an update for wherever it is required in order to improve and remedy this.

* No Sleep functionality setting within Bootcamp/Windows; when using this with a MacBook Pro in ‘clamshell’ mode (& especially with the…

Wow wow wow!, 27 Oct 2011

By 

Biznt –

This review is from: Apple 27 inch Thunderbolt Display (Accessory)

Well I’ll get to the point quickly, then explain further why my opinion really counts!

First off, it may be expensive but its an absolutely an amazing must have. Especially if you have a Mac…and even more especially if you have the fabulous Macbook Air. The 27 inch imac may be slightly more expensive, but this display will last you for ever…well past the upgrades between Macs/imacs. Dont be tempted to by an imac as a screen – it will cost you more, be out of date in years (internal computer), and be a real pain figuring out where your files are kept etc…I was tempted and made right decision. Forget two displays also – one big one with no join is the way forward. The resolution is incredible.

THE LONGER VERSION:

So why the big screen? If you’ve ever worked on two displays, you know you cant go back. Likewise if you want a bigger screen for mobile working you have two options – by a big brick laptop – compromising on screen size versus mobility – or get an external screen with a light laptop. There’s more…working long hours at a laptop is an ergonomic nightmare…even before I had an external screen I had a laptop propped up to the right eye level (rendering the 45 degree keyboard useless), with an additional keyboard and mouse connected by bluetooth.

I came to this after years of toying with solutions. I used to buy big Dells (XPS 15/17) thinking I got tons of performance and a good enough screen size for the best money. Then my girlfriend bought a Mac Air…I started having problems with my Dell, the fan noise was disturbing me, the term laptop was a push…compared with the one hand portability of my girlfriends Mac Air – my brick was like lugging a desktop around! Once the Dell had been sent back the second time, I used my girlfriends Mac Air temporarily and downloaded trial versions of Office, Photoshop and AutoCad expecting it to be very slow and trip up, but it would do me for a few weeks…her computer was rock solid reliable, and FASTER than my quad core Dell with its solid state drive…I couldnt believe it. Also I was working in coffee shops and in bed with true mobility….I fell in love with the Mac Air and cursed my stupidity in “saving money with a windows based laptop”

But…when doing photoshop and Autocad a bigger screen would be nice, I used some old displays but the resolution compared with the Mac Air screen wasnt good enough…so I bit the bullet and bought this display for working at home…

Combining the portability of a Mac Air with this screen is absolutely amazing. I work with some very heavy programs and the mac Air can handle everything I throw at it. Which stands to reason, I was using top of the range computers a couple of years ago that still arent as powerful as the Mac Air…

Long story short…this display is the absolute mutts nuts. It stops you compromising on your laptop (by getting a brick for the bigger screen). Combining this display with the Mac Air is the most incredible, uncompromising computer experience available. Whatever computer you have working on this big beautiful screen is such a leap forward you’ll never go back.

UPDATE 3 MONTHS ON: I have now got Windows installed as a Virtual machine running inside OSX on my Mac Air using Parallels desktop (just amazing! I can run anything from windows as if its installed on the Mac!). I cant tell you how much more work I get done now on the Mac Air…when at home I have the Mac Air propped up next to the Thunderbird screen, with a wireless keyboard and mouse…and I have Windows running on one screen and OSX on the other…its like having two computers!!! Able to run anything! Just incredible…with acres and acres of workspace. There is a connector for the thunderbolt display so its almost like having a docking station. My love for this combo just grows and grows…buy it, love it!

After purchasing what i thought was a bargain and a good first computer for my daughter, it soon became apparent why it was so reasonably priced when i opened the box.After removing all the packaging i pulled out the main base unit, to my surprise the back was hanging off, a chunk of casing was missing off the front top corner, i know it states that the product may have cosmetic scuffs, but this looked like it had been kicked around a football pitch. Upon moving the base unit there was a metal clunking noise inside, but after connecting the computer together it didnt even work, what a pile of rubbish. I called the company who eventually answered, he was very appologetic and blamed his warehouse staff the rough handling by the courier before accepting he had sent a rubbish product and offered a full refund and organised collection of the product. On the day of collection, time was getting on so i called the courier he had apparently arranged and was told that this hadnt been done, so not being very happy i called this company again and he arranged for collection again, not trusting them i took the box to the courier myself, i recived a full refund within 3 working days but my advice would be, be very carefull before buying, call them and speak to them and draw your own conclusions.

Stunning Picture Quality!, 28 Feb 2011

By 

Ian Daniel (Manchester UK) –

This review is from: LG M2280D 22-inch Full HD 1080p Widescreen LCD TV/Monitor with Freeview (5ms, 5000000:1, HDMI) (Electronics)

For the money this TV is hands-down the best buy available. I use it for a TV / PC Monitor in the office. The LG M2280D 22 inch is a full HD LED TV with a stylish 22 inch flat-screen TV that offers 1080p High Definition and a 5,000,000:1 contrast ratio. Every colour explodes on your screen! The picture quality is stunning be it on Freeview, DVD or via the USB connection at the back.

The spec includes:

- 1080P
- 5,000,000:1Contract Ratio
- Connections: USB port, SVGA input for PC connectivity, component and composite video inputs, two HDMI connectors, speaker out
- Wall-mountable
- LED backlit
- Dolby Surround X sound that gives you a great cinema feeling
- Built-in digital Freeview tuner
- 1920 x 1080 screen resolution.

It receives both Digital and Analogue channels where I live. The 'red-button' and text services work fine, and actually seem to be a little bit faster than on my other TV.<br/><br/>Sound quality is OK, there isn't very much bass but considering the size of the set it is perfectly acceptable.<br/><br/>As a computer monitor it also seems to work very well. I was worried about viewing angles, as it does not use an IPS screen, but the viewing angles are far better than my laptop. There are a lot of different picture adjustments, there are also 2 'expert' settings where you can go through a setup wizard which guides you through the process of adjusting different parameters to get the best picture.<br/><br/>I'm not sure whether the stand allows the set to be tilted up or down. I tried but either such adjustment is not possible or it is very stiff. Either way I didn't want to use too much force so I left it as it was, which was fine.<br/><br/>It can also play music, movies and photos via a memory card plugged into the USB port on the back of the set. Music and photos play without any problems. I don't have any Divx movies so I can't try the movie playing.<br/><br/>It comes with a fairly standard remote control.

Excellent, 1 Nov 2010

By 

asmo (Sheffield, UK) –

This review is from: LG M2280D 22-inch Full HD 1080p Widescreen LCD TV/Monitor with Freeview (5ms, 5000000:1, HDMI) (Electronics)

As a TV this seems to work very well. It receives both Digital and Analogue channels where I live. The ‘red-button’ and text services work fine, and actually seem to be a little bit faster than on my other TV.

Sound quality is OK, there isn’t very much bass but considering the size of the set it is perfectly acceptable.

As a computer monitor it also seems to work very well. I was worried about viewing angles, as it does not use an IPS screen, but the viewing angles are far better than my laptop. There are a lot of different picture adjustments, there are also 2 ‘expert’ settings where you can go through a setup wizard which guides you through the process of adjusting different parameters to get the best picture.

I’m not sure whether the stand allows the set to be tilted up or down. I tried but either such adjustment is not possible or it is very stiff. Either way I didn’t want to use too much force so I left it as it was, which was fine.

It can also play music, movies and photos via a memory card plugged into the USB port on the back of the set. Music and photos play without any problems. I don’t have any Divx movies so I can’t try the movie playing.

It comes with a fairly standard remote control. The manual and driver install file are included on a CD. I haven’t used the driver files as it seems to work fine without them. I have checked the screen carefully using a piece of free software called CheckMon.exe and can’t find any bad pixels.

Edit: The set can tilt up and down, but it is quite stiff. The set can play several video formats via the USB connector, not just Divx.

Well resolved query, 5 Sep 2011

By 

ikarus57 –

This review is from: DELL OPTIPLEX 745 Desktop PC, Intel Pentium D 945 INTEL DUAL CORE 3.4Ghz CPU with 4Mb Cache, 2Gb DDR2 RAM , DVD-ROM, 80Gb SATA Hard Drive, AC97 Sound, Windows XP Professional Installed & COA License Sticker (Personal Computers)

I ordered the Dell Optiplex 745 from Comupters hub and didn’t receive an Intel Pentium D dual core but got an Intel Pentium E instead which is a better CPU – I now learn.

Phoned to query order and the call was returned within 1/2 hour to explain and apologise.

A VERY HELPFUL SELLER, 18 Oct 2011

By 

wiklbur –

This review is from: DELL OPTIPLEX 745 Desktop PC, Intel Pentium D 945 INTEL DUAL CORE 3.4Ghz CPU with 4Mb Cache, 2Gb DDR2 RAM , DVD-ROM, 80Gb SATA Hard Drive, AC97 Sound, Windows XP Professional Installed & COA License Sticker (Personal Computers)

I ordered the Dell 75 desktop PC which was so easy to do, with Amazon the seller being Rapid Solutions it was delivered on time it was packed well and even on seeing it,it’s not what I wanted
Even that was no problem with Rapid they just came and picked it up and gave me a full refund it is so nice to see that some people you can still rely on to do the right thing,
