first put out their 22" Cinema display in 2000, it was $4,000:

So at this point, the "small" Cinema display is far less than it used to
cost, and the massive 30" Cinema is less than the $22" Cinema from 4
years ago.
Another comparison: Newegg's biggest LCD (it seems) is Viewsonic's (very
gorgeous) 1600x1200 23.1" TFT for $2,500. Considering Apple's 23"
Cinema is a widescreen with a similar pixel ratio (1920x1200) and, in my
opinion, crisper and brighter than the Viewsonic, *and* $500 less, it's
not a bad deal :)
