    Which runs hotter, ACD 30", HP LP3085, Samsung 305T, DELL 2709W, or NEC 2609WUXI?

    Thanks obobski, I guess why I'm asking, is that I current have 2 apple 22" cinemas, and the power bricks themselves run much warmer than the displays. There is almost no heat coming off the displays. While great monitors, I'm planning on replacing one, if not both, for ones with more real...
