Test your display:

Apple makes really nice LCD displays. The viewing angle
is huge, the colors are good, and you get a digital
connector for good image quality with pass-through USB.
The "mouse trails" problem LCDs once had is now gone.
Consider all that you could be missing:
the power cord
noise
weight
wiggle when you run a motor (washer, refrigerator, etc.)
flicker
wiggle when you highlight text
heat
blooming (white bleeds into black)
ringing effects near sharp vertical edges
the loss of your desk space
X-ray radiation
blurry text (try a 6x13 font at 1600x1024)
some of the power drain on a UPS
white-on-black text being nearly unreadable
loss of saturation for bright cyan, yellow, and magenta
that gray haze over what should be pure black
