I purchased two HP M24f monitors to use as extended monitors to my Macbook Pro. These are BY FAR - BY FAAAAR - better than all monitors I had the chance to check that are in the price range up to three times that of the HP. It is obviously not an Apple monitor, but it costs a fraction of what the Apple monitor costs, and it's more than enough for my needs (Word + Web). It was the best deal I struck this year.
