If you control the ambient lighting, they are great. Also, I tend to use mine mainly for text, with light-colored backgrounds. But white on a black bacground can be annoying (hear that iMav?).

i dont know every time i used one i got annoyed that it was like looking at a mirror and i could see stuff behind me.

i love my dell 2405 and i love my friends dell 2407-HC even more... it has 92% color gamut and no glossyness.
