stupid dell and your stupid state sales tax. you're not in my state.

Yep #1, you're right, Dell is stupid for still selling this stupid LCD for this price without HDMI and HDCP support...

HDMI no, HDCP yes.... http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&sku=222-7175&redirect=1

agreed.

Is this panel 6 bit or 8 bit?

I oh so want one of these tho.

for less than $700 get a 28", those are two expensive inches. go to newegg and see the 2 28" LCDs.

28's and the dell 27 are the same res as the 24 (1920...)

i've got 2 of these and they're great, but if i wasn't spending fellowship funny money then i'd rather have 2 24's than one 30. i paid 1200 each back in late april (150$ coupon off ebay, 150$ discount) plus tax.
