Apple’s new LED Cinema Display is designed specifically — nay, exclusively — with MacBook Pro owners in mind, giving them a simple way to dramatically increase their screen real estate with an extra 24 inches of incredibly gorgeous video. This 1,920 x 1,200-pixel resolution monitor includes all the trimmings you’d expect from Apple: beautiful industrial design, spare controls (there isn’t even a power button), and unparalleled performance and brightness.There’s a catch, however, and that’s that if you don’t have a MacBook Pro (with its mini DisplayPort connector), you’re pretty much hosed. A single cable with three connectors splitting off from its terminus snakes out from the back of the LED Cinema Display: the mini DisplayPort plug, a MagSafe charger, and a USB connector. Plug them all into your Mac laptop and you’re ready for business, no additional setup required. But if you have any other type of machine, you’ll find this monitor is pretty much useless — it won’t even work with your MacBook Pro if you try booting into Windows via Boot Camp. Booooo!
