For those who know me I'm an avid gamer and enjoy technology like a kid so this year as a Christmas gift to myself, I decided to buy myself a work/gaming monitor.
All my devices are Apple so it was very tricky finding the perfect monitor that was compatible with my IOS software but after three weeks or searching I found the perfect monitor.
For just about $1,300 bucks now my home office looks complete and even my wife thinks its a super nice setup even though she wasn't a fan of the price tag lol
Above is an image of my new setup

It takes a little getting used to at first, I was watching Avatar with my son on it last night and the visuals were insane

WOW, now THAT is a nice setup!
It looks amazing, but wooo that is a lot of money for a monitor!
But hey, you gotta spoil yourself sometimes. Good for you!

Apple would perfer you buy from them, so of course it's a pain.

True, they don't offer curved or big enough monitors plus they are way more expensive than Dell but I like what I like lol

@BACONSTRIPSXXX - Apple tries to prevent people from buying third party hardware.

@LadyDuck Yeah, I'm already invested in it with my laptop, iPad and iPhone. Hope they make a curved monitor in the future

That price tag is steep, but if you can use it for work and your gaming then worthwhile.
