DELL UltraSharp 2005FPW 20.1" Widescreen LCD for $599

Dell is offering a heck of a good deal on its 20.1" Widescreen apsect ratio LCD, now available for a mere $599. That's quite a bargain considering I just bought a 20" Apple Cinema display for $750. I haven't seen one of these displays up close, but I think Jason purchased a couple for himself a while back. Perhaps he can fill us in on whether or not this model is worth its weight in plastic. Dell has long been known for it's good deals in LCDs. Back in 2002 I purchased an 18" UltraSharp for just $449, which was an incredible deal back in those days.
I'm rather tempted to get one for myself to go along with my PC, but I think the PC needs upgraded before the monitor. A circa 2001 1.7GHZ P4 system just ain't the shizel anymore. :cry: I'll probably hold out for Intel-based PowerMacs that can dual boot Windows XP and OSX, sharing the same lovely Cinema display.
