Sorry, I completely missed that in skimming your posts.

I also missed that your iMac would not dim past 140 (I seem to recall hearing that issue before, tho)

I think monitor brightness is a very personal preference dependent on any number of environmental factors...I just noted where I am (my room is relatively dim)...what's much more important is the monitor's ability to display neutral gray...

my paycheck and work flow depends on faithfully "proofing" color on a Photoshop reference monitor, so I would never skimp on buying the best main monitor and profiling package I could afford

from what I've heard the iMac is not so great for critical color proofing � I am not knocking the iMac � it is what it is

that's just my 2 cents
