Omg

Wow, it's so thin, I guess this monitor will be a good setup in eyefinity and mosaic... It can save some space behind in it...

Wow, that is real purdy.

It's not clear from the pics, but do the cables plug into the base? Cause that would be oh-so clean.

Good. If it has semi-glossy apperture and S-PVA or IPS display it is perfect! :)

Indeed, gloss bugs the crap out of me even semi on larger units.

Would of liked it more if it was thicker with less bezel lol.. Pointless to me it being that thin And i wounder how much quality has gone though the window due to it.

It looks great, but thinner bezel and quality of display is more useful than such a thin screen, esp. for multiscreen setups. After all, the base is wide, and wider still once all the plugs and cables are connected. And I spend my time looking from the front, so the width adds no value except cosmetic value to a third party, not to the user.

My laptop is even thinner :p but there are viewing angle issues. I wonder how this one performs?

Yeah the only real use I can see for such a thin screen is if you could hang it on the wall, but since the input is on the base I think it's worthless. I also wonder what sacrifices did they had to take to make it so thin, if there's any.

I guess some people would sacrifice anything for the aesthetics...

I agree. It's way too much for a 21.5 inch screen.

So new, so thin, so awesome, and they will still ship it with a single VGA cable.

Unfortunately being ultra thin reflects in the image quality of each and every such LCD manufactured and reviewed so far. And I wouldn't dream of an ultra thin IPS or VA any time in the near future. There's a reason why those monitors are thick, the back lighting needs to be more complex, google it.
