Is there any decent new glossy/glass monitor out at the moment?

I want to hook up my macbook retina when I come home, right now I have a dell with AG coating but I rather get something glossy/glass.
 
24" is sort of weird in the IPS world. There are limited light coated 24"ers, and basically no glossy ones (that I am aware of). You can find 23" and 27" IPS in glossy ... but 24" is a pain to find.

The only glossy one that I know if is the older 24" Apple cinema display. But even used, it costs around $400-$500.

There is the 24" Samsung PLS semiglossy (which has bleed issues) and Dell makes a 24" S series glossy that is AMVA. But I am not sure of anything else. If you can live with AMVA limitations and aren't a big gamer, it at least is affordable, so it may be worth checking out. Or just pick a different size ... there are several 27" IPS displays out that are glossy.

Avoid that model. They break down often (too often, always more blowing out back-lights) , have zero configuration options, and have a loud obnoxious fan running at all times.
