Obviously the pixel density is higher if it's smaller but has the same resolution. Or maybe it has the same width but is not as high in order to make it widescreen, and that's why it's 27" and not 30". If the latter is true, then they have the same pixel density.
you really should compare display to display. matte is better to me, it gives a more real representation of colors without the issue of reflection. do you feel like in your workflow the extra 160 pixels play a role (for instance the dock). How is the life of the display's backlight?
And lastly, obviously it has a higher pixel density its a 27" with the same horizontal pixel count...
You just compared a Mac Pro connected to a 30" ACD to a 27" iMac, do a better comparison...
He is like some people when they are talking on the phone. They are speaking with someone and pointing and using hand gestures. They think that they are being seen by the recipient who is, most likely, a few miles away. An example is when he talks about the iMac's height, you can see him in his reflection on the screen.
He is like some people when they are talking on the phone. They are speaking with someone and pointing ad using hand gestures.

I'd not consider the 30" monitor to be a cinema display because it has an aspect ratio of 16:10 and is more suited for gaming. Personally, I think the 27" display is more like a cinema display because of its aspect ratio of 16:9.
So the iMac is all-in-one, it's thinner, it's glossy, it has a quad-core processor... and it's on the right. You spent like 2 minutes saying that. zzz
I'd take the 30 matte for photo editing over the glossy glarey 27 any day of the week. Nothing worse then editing on a glossy screen HATE IT WITH A PASSION !!!
The iMac is an all in one, the cinema display is matte and thicker, and the iMac is an all in one, but the verdict is, the iMac is thinner, the glossy display is better, and the iMac is an all in one, the iMac is nice, the cinema display is expensive, the iMac is an all in one, the cinema display is bigger, the iMac is thinner, the cinema display is not an all in one.
I know right. He spend minutes telling us that the iMac is a quad core all-in-one, and that the Cinema Display is just a monitor.
This video was kinda useless. The only thing I found helpful was the size comparison in a video to help me imagine what it would be like it I bought one for an iMac.
Dude all i heard was " the mac cinema 30" display is just a display as for the 27" iMAC is in comparison a lot better then 30" cinema display if your going to choose between the 2 in my opinion they both have a great display but the verdict is" *rofl Just get a PC and save your self a lot of money :)
Personally, I think that a Cinema Display running Snow Leopard would win any appearance test, HANDS DOWN! Snow Leopard is the most colorful, best looking system on the market, 64 bit :D
Leopard looks a little more dull.
Of course, I'm running on a 21" iMac. 1080p here. A 27 would be nice though.
@PalmyJason Yep. I would like to buy another 27in Imac for work use and have the other for general internet stuff
I must find out from the dealer ( sorry...reseller ) if an Imac can be calibrated for photography like a standard display. I admit though, perhaps going matte rather than glossy is the sensible thing to do for photos and publishing
For the price of one Apple 30" at $1799 w/tax $1,972.41, I can buy two 27" inch LED Cinema at $2,172.83 so for $200 from the 30" inch i can have a dual 27" inch setup for the same price of one 30" inch, Apple should of lowered the 30 inch to $1299 and I don't know why they don't do that but anyways I'm planning to pick up a 27" inch LED next month for $999 not buying the 30" inch for $1799 it's just not worth the price
@34skyline the 27" display does not have the resolution of the 30" display. The 30" display will have a better quality picture. I have a 30" display hooked up to my mac pro and its amazing, But I still cant wait for the 27" to come out so I can hook up my macbook to it.
@Rlnthndr but I will not pay $1799 for Apple's 30", Dell's new 30" IPS u3011 that is going to release in october has better spec's then Apple's 30" and Dell is going to sale it for $1299 same as HP zr30w on Amazon there going for $1213 but if Apple lowered it too $1199-$1299 then I will buy the 30 inch instead of the 27" but for $1799 w/tax $1956.41 for Apple 30" I can buy two 27" LED $999 each and with just $200 more and have a dual LED setup the 27" is a better deal over the 30" in my opinion
@Rlnthndr Apple's 30" is awesome display but like I said before it's not worth $1900 for something that's going to be discontinued, Apple should of took the time and revised the price on the 30" like Apple did with 24" LED, All this is just my opinion I've been waiting for 2yrs for apple to update their 30" inch and came to find out their going to be discontinued and replace it with a 27" LED but good news rumors are Apple is coming out with a 30 LED but in 2012 but i'm not waiting that long
@34skyline The 27 led cinema will be better than the current 30 imac, it s not worth the price, at least the 27 cinema display coming on september 2010 got isight camera, mic and many more and the price is pretty good!
