HP's oh-so-HP-named ZR30w monitor is an S-IPS type LCD, similar to the beautiful display in Apple's iPad--but so much better.

It has a DisplayPort and DVI-D input, as well as four USB inputs built right in ... Where it really shines is the color display, making it ideal for graphic artists, designers, and animators. The ZR30w can display
