What is the Windows PC monitor equivalent to Apple Mac monitor?

Q. What is the Windows PC monitor equivalent to the Apple Mac monitor?
I'm not talking about programs or software, I'm talking about the actual hardware monitor.

A. Hi Melissa, hope sincerely you are fine.

If you are not talking about software, then certainly you mean the LCD technology behind! The LCD Panel inside iMacs are manufactured by LG, they are made in China and only assembled in California by Apple. For example the 27" LCD in iMac have the following specs: LED-backlit glossy widescreen TFT active-matrix liquid crystal display with IPS technology,
Resolution: 2560 by 1440 pixels,
Typical brightness: 375 cd/m2,
It can be attached to a wall mount, articulating arm, or other VESA-compliant mounting solution using the optional VESA Mount Adapter Kit. Technically speaking, it is really hard to get an equivalent Monitor using this LCD technology in the market presently. I don't find any monitor competing with the Apple LCD technology.

As for the Apple Cinema Display 27" (i.e monitor only) the following can be noted:
27-inch (diagonal viewable image size) thin film transistor (TFT) active-matrix liquid crystal display with in-plane switching (IPS).

Supported resolutions: 2560 by 1440 pixels, 1920 by 1080 pixels, 1280 by 720 pixels
Colors (maximum): 16.7 million
Aspect ratio: 16:9
Viewing angle: 178° horizontal; 178° vertical
Brightness (typical): 375 cd/m2
Contrast ratio (typical): 1000:1
Response time (typical): 12 ms

To get the equivalent for this is really really hard although not impossible. According to my experience, I haven't seen another display equivalent to the Apple Cinema Display. That said, the Apple Cinema Display has it's disadvantages as well for eg it uses a Mini Display Port!

I know that i haven't answer your question by naming to you the exact equivalent monitor but I say that I haven't found anything matching the Apple Cinema Display yet. If you happen to get one that can match Apple's, please do let me know.

I hope that I have been of some help while sharing my experience to you Melissa. Wish you good luck. All the best.


Is it unhealthy if I wash my face after 8-12hrs of working in-front of my PC monitor?
Q. Is it unhealthy specially for my eyes? My monitor are LCD and LED.
I kinda feel refresh each time I wash my eyes but I think its weird, so maybe their is a side effect just maybe.

A. Variations of this have been asked for years. I've never understood the reasoning behind it.

What effect could washing your face possibly have to do with the fact you have been using the computer ?

There is no logical connection in any way, shape or form.

Some idiot parents even forbid their kids to take a bath within an hour of using the computer....what kind of nonsense is that ?

Washing your face is fine...but DON'T wash your eyes ANYTIME...regardless of what you have been doing. There is no need to wash your eyes, they clean themselves better all alone. Washing them removes the natural lubricants and makes the eye feel dryer and opens them up to infection until those lubricants have replaced themselves.

You can hold a cool facecloth over your closed eyes and that will refresh them even better.
