if so, which one and how do you like it?

I saw the Apple 27" up close this weekend and my jaw dropped. Wow is the word. 1000 bucks though, and $1600 if you want the computer to go with it. I am not an Apple guy so I don't know how it works with stuff I am used to using..

At age 48 I need reading glasses more and more, I think a top end monitor would help the eyes

thoughts /suggestions

thanks

Asus is going to have a 28" 4k monitor launch in the next month that is only $650. If I was buying one, that'd be it.

Apple monitor is great if you deal with color, otherwise Id go with another brand and more for your $$$

Maybe, but remember that high-res = more pixels displaying the same image, so text will be a lot smaller compared to your run of the mill 1080p. Zoomed-in text will be a lot sharper, though. My main monitor is a 27" 1440p display, and I often have to zoom in to read these forums. And I'm only 28.
