Dell's U2711, on sale for $1,100 today, seems like the monitor dreams are made of, with 2560x1440 resolution, 100 percent representation of the sRGB color space, 6ms response and a window-friendly matte finish. There's just one, tiny catch. UPDATE<\/strong><\/p>

This Dell monitor is believed to use the same LG-sourced panel that's been plaguing iMacs. You know, the yellow one<\/a>.<\/p>

To make matters worse, some have already complained that these LG-sourced monitors are already causing problems in the Dell monitor line<\/a>.<\/p>

The potential issues haven't prevented Dell from securing a CNET Editor's Choice<\/a> on the U2711, so maybe they're just fine. But I would strongly recommend you take a look at the return policy before ordering. Full specs at: [Dell<\/a> via Electronista<\/a>]<\/p>

UPDATE<\/strong>: Excellent point from a reader—the 27-inch iMac uses the same LG basic LM270WQ1 IPS panel but the Dell uses a conventional CCFL backlight as opposed to the iMac's LEDs. Especially since the LED matrix positioning has been suspected of causing yellow iMacs, the idea that this Dell display would be just fine makes some level of sense.<\/em><\/p>
