Been trying for the past few day to make my mind up on a set of monitors; Eizo ColorEdge CG210 (would like the CG220 but a bit on the pricey side) or the Lacie 321, would also consider the Lacie 319.

Has anyone got any of the above that can give me their views? Spec wise I'm pretty much clued up, just wanted some opinions of anyone who's used them.

Cheers,

Methanol

lacie 321/319?? are these special ones or just model names that i don't know? I thought they only did the photonvisions - 19" and 20" - now?

edit: ignore my stupidity, I just looked it up. I didn't know that the range above the photons were called that. I have an electron 19" (CRT) and a photon 19. The CRT is good for colour, the LCD not, but then again it was never meant to be. No experience of the better LCD models though, sorry!

No prob Dave, however you are right, the LaCie Electron Blue 22 is probably still at the top of it's class as far as CRTs are concerned; well.. for colour anyways

After much deliberation and a photo finish, I went with the Lacies.
