The Apple Cinema Display LCD screen is made by LG.-Philips I have a 30" Apple Cinema, but I seriously looked at Samsung and almost bought one. I did a side by side with the 30" screens only but was very impressed with the 20"+ Samsung screens they had.

I have around 20 ongoing projects varying from 1-2 days to 6 months. I usually have around 5-10 medium size sign design jobs (apartment, retail and business signage) at a single time usually lasting 3-6 months. Then I have 5-10 quickie sign design/drafting jobs that last a day or 2 to fill in...

That is a sweet collection of work...

If you’re new, and want a shortcut, try this: go work for someone else. Learn form them. Understand this industry first. That is the quickest shortcut you can ask for. And that ends my advice for the new guys. I think it's good advice, even better advice is to work for a few shops, who's to say...

All the sign shops i have worked for worked in either Corel and/or Illustrator and then output in a sign program. The main reasons is that they did more than just signs and Corel/Illy worked well with signs and print. It Is cheaper to maintain Corel/Illy upgrades than multiple copies of an...

Experience is one of those trick words. Bite the bullet and learn Illustrator or Corel, your illustrator comes with a tutorial disc and you can go to Adobes site for more tutorials. Some Corel packages have one too or try www.lynda.com

Depends on how fast houses are selling these days... ;) Coro can last 1-3 years but considered a temp sign substrate. I have seen coro signs fall apart in a couple of months out here in the IE. When i made these signs, I used aluminum, but these signs are re-used.
