I took a chance, considering the iffy reviews on it. I've had it since December, and it's been working wonderfully since then. Coming from a 19" 720p monitor, what an incredible difference!
Just added a 50" 4k TV w/ Apple TV to the office so here's another look at my setup.
Awesome setup, what kinda TV is that and what wall mount do you use please? Thanks.
Great fan
Do you find it so much better than the other to justify the price?
I try not to have too many things on my desk... though I might buy a small potted plant to add a little bit of life. lol
You mean you want to get one that is 7 years old technology or want Apple to release a new one?I want a new Thunderbolt Display.
I meant that I want Apple to release a new one. No way would I pay $999 or $799 (refurb) for that brick of a monitor with USB 2, no antiglare, no USB-C, and outdated screen tech.
Understood. I just don't understand why they don't drop the price to make it s good buy again.
For 399 I'm sure they would sell a bucket load. Their costs must have come down significantly.
If they do release a new one, I'd be suprised if they offered a Matt screen version.
That's why I use an NEC Spectraview next to my iMac. The screen uniformity and wide colour gamut are beautiful (as well as a Matt screen), but the body of the thing is pretty ugly!
I want really one too! The outdated display made me decide to go for the 5k iMac. Until then, it will tide me over.I want a new Thunderbolt Display.
Here's mini - tweaked it a bit. Also not pictured here, but there's often an old iPad mini propped up against the lamp being used as a display for the 2012 mini on the far right.

A long overdue tidy of my nerd room.

I notice speakers there but I can't tell what kind.
What model of LG monitor is that?
As it doesn't seem quite fair to only show pretty versions of our setups, how about when it's actively in use? Here's mine earlier today, in the depths of lesson planning for next year (teachers do actually work over the summer, we just don't get paid for it )

Lol you suggesting our desks aren't always this clean and tidy and they might be staged photos?As it doesn't seem quite fair to only show pretty versions of our setups, how about when it's actively in use?

I just moved back to my childhood home town. Just finished setting up my desk yesterday.
Swan M50W. I also have a Music Streamer II DAC connected.
Hey my desk has a teacup on it.
