Say what? Dennis? It's obvious you do not have a clue what you are talking about. All of Apple' line of LCD monitors are now LED. the LED refers to how the are illuminated. Older panels were lit by florescent gas discharge tubes which drew a lot of power, required high voltage, and were thicker. New technology is a bar of low energy light emitting diodes, much thinner, and much more efficient.

Go knock yourself out. I own very nice thin LCD monitors. If you want to blow an extra $100 or so on LED backlit go right ahead. You are not alone. LED monitors are trendy these days

Outside the Apple universe there is more choice. I can hook an LCD monitor to me desktop or spend extra for an LED backlit LCD monitor. A quick scan at NewEgg shows LED backlit to be about 25% of all LCDs they are selling

Now you're back tracking. Dancing to cover your faux pas. We know what you said and no amount of wiggling can reverse your error. Dennis, we KNOW you are ignorant of things Apple... It's OK. Just quit trying to "educate" us who are not. We know a lot more than you do, being intimately familiar with BOTH platforms, unlike you.
