LEDs look pretty cool in photos, but what are the actual benefits when doing actual work? Serious question because I am really curious what is the point, beyond looking cool?

Accent lighting? Just because you enjoy it.

I ordered a 21.5" ZR22W to use next to my 27" iMac in portrait for coding. Really need to get rid of my bookshelf speakers on the desk but it's impossible to beat them otherwise. :(

if it weren't for those displays being so unreliable now due to age id still have my dual 30 inch displays. my displays both turned yellow and started to image retent. but when working propelly there definitely my favorite of all time.

Fair enough. That's as good a reason as any :)

That's how I feel too. :D I don't really notice the LEDs under my desk, or the LEDs on my keyboard for that matter when I use my computer. When I sit back and am watching a tv show though, it looks awesome, and feels awesome.

For myself in a dark environment, I find they help brighten the room a little to reduce eye strain from the display. Sometimes the lowest brightness setting isn't low enough.

Here is an article on PCWorld that sort of explains the concept.
