I am looking for a HD LED back lite monitor. I know mac has one but it does not work on my PC. I want to be able to calibrate it as well for photo editing purposes. I am not looking for just a cheap bare bones monitor want hi quality

There are currently none (?) that are IPS, which is what you need for photo editing. LED is just a backlighting type, and for almost all implementations it offers nothing over regular CCFL.

Eizo CG series aren't high enough quality?

How is your Eizo calibrated?

Why will the Apple monitor not work on a PC? You can get PC Graphics cards that support Display Port output.

IT is profiled using hte software taht came with it. When we first bought it seemed brihgter and more vivid. Now it appears dart and flat not sure why. We really like the monitor it just seems like soemthing is wron and thuoght maybe there was something better out there it is about 3 to 4 years old.

What calibration hardware are you using? It could be the puck that's failing, not the monitor.

And have you contacted Eizo's tech support?
