I am considering a 20" Apple Cinema Display. Two, actually. How is
the refresh rate? Is it sufficient for gaming?

Thanks.

I am not a gamer, but the few times I've spun up a DVD on it, it
appeared OK to me.

If the specs are near the 17" display, I can play full-bore Unreal
Tournament 2003 without any tearing or ghosting.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
