Product Details of Apple Silver 30" Cinema HD Widescreen LCD Display

Description

Your Apple display matches the sculpted aluminum enclosures of the Power Mac G5 and PowerBook, and for good reason. Apple designers carefully chose this hue to minimize interference with color onscreen, providing a neutral reference point for viewing your work. Strong anodized aluminum also allows for an exceptionally narrow bezel, so you can use multiple displays together seamlessly.Effortless AdjustmentThe smooth motion hinge on your Apple display requires very little pressure to tilt the monitor to a different position. This design allows you to you view the display at whatever angle works for your environment, anywhere from -5° to 25°.Desktop PeripheralsEach display includes a FireWire 400 hub and a USB 2.0 hub, each with two ports. So you can connect a printer or scanner, or a camcorder or digital camera. The FireWire port lets you easily use an iSight camera for video chat, presented beautifully on your Apple display, or connect your iPod dock. You can also make best use of all the USB 2.0 devices, whether you�re using your display with a Mac or PC.Eliminate Tunnel VisionThe widescreen design of the Apple Cinema Display line offers a natural format for arranging documents the way your brain processes them � longer wide than high. That�s why each display gives you the best view for your work. It just makes sense to be able to display a Web page and its code next to each other horizontally, or long video timelines in wide format. Apple engineers find that 100 pixel per inch resolution is ideal for images, yet allows you to easily work with sophisticated type treatments or just plain email. This painstaking attention to detail moves the industry forward and gives you best LCD technology available.This display requires the NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra DDL Video Card.

Just what I needed

Strengths: Lots of real estate, great picture, full control over brightness.

Weakness: only has one input, would be great if it could do at least one additional vga/dvi

I have been after this monitor for a while now but could never actually find a merchant that had a good price. I was pleased when I found this merchant had it for $100 less than everyone else and with free shipping/no tax to boot. I feel like my studio setup is not complete, this monitor compliments my Mac Pro perfectly!

Apple 30" Display

Strengths: Gorgeous picture quality. Clean looks. Firewire & USB ports. Much better stand than the competitors.

Weakness: Expensive compared to others. Gets hot. Big power inverter box. Not VESA compatible.

At first I was conflicted between the Apple & Samsung 30". I really wanted a black monitor, but after biting the bullet, getting this one, and using it for about a week - i must say, the titanium still does look very professional and matches with the rest of my stuff. Dual-link DVI cards are common, and not so expensive anymore - i'm using a PC running a 8800GTS 512MB and a Q6600 quad-core...

Apple Silver 30" Cinema HD Widescreen LCD Display

Strengths: The highest resolution TFT monitor you could find in the market (to date)

Weakness: Dual Link DVI graphics card for PC is very expensive. Very limited connectivity.

Probably the highest resolution TFT monitor you can find in the market, requires Dual Link DVI graphics card. If you own a Mac, you need a Nvidia Geforce 6800 Ultra DDL (about £399). Please note, Dual DVI graphics cards are NOT Dual Link. Unfortunate for me, I am a PC user, only options available for me would be to purchase workstation class graphics card, eg. Nvidia Quadro or ATI FireGL....

Great Look

If you need more screen to look at your creative or spreadsheet projects, well you found it. Expensive yes, but great quality. Sure another will suffice, but if you like staying brand coordinated this won't do you wrong. Oh and the FBS from your online GF/BF will look great too.
