I suggest you read this by someone who definitely knows what he is talking about in regard to monitors before you go out and spend a billion dollars on a Eizo or anything else that is soon to be obsolite. Just because you have a high lut display doesn't mean it is really doing you any good as far as actually using what you might or might not be seeing in regard to adobe gamut on this very expensive monitor.

Tom,
I don't think you'd be buying an Eizo or a Quatto or a NEC or a LaCIE for
the higher contrast ratio but for the extra uniformity and hardware LUT for
advanced LCD calibration, features
which the Cinema Display can't offer
currently.
