Apple WWDC 2004 Keynote - The first aluminum Apple Cinema Displays introduction

[thekeyring]

The displays are amazing... but really, really expensive! The majority of Mac Mini customers must use PC displays.

I miss my 23" ACD only because I loved the matte screen finish, but realized it was getting old and the backlight was trying to tell me that it wanted a nice rest and had to upgrade to the new 27" ACD. I have to say the new 27" looks a lot better as far as colors go, but gloss is very annoying and not good for a professional like me who looks at the screen X amount of hours a week. Sorry apple, but you need to bring back matte. Leave the gloss to the consumer level macs...

Its fun that displays have not evolved since Apple invented the 30 inch display in mid 2004! 2012 will finally be the year that its technically possible to have a higher resolution display with minimum 60Hz thanks to Thunderbolt and/or AMDs fast HDMI.

My life is now complete. I have 2 x 30 Cinema displays on the newest mac pro. 5870 and 5770 video cards.

[PS2Gameplays]

[Skylight00000]

Over 3k cash for a display? You kno how nice a computer u could get with that? :o

[AnimalCrossingFor3DS]

@Skylight00000 You can get one now on Amazon for $1,200.

REPLYING TO OLD COMMENTS FTW.

[spencersmat]

[hippievogelei]

[killswitcher]

lol amazing that this display is 5 years old (nearly 6) and i still in many cases unmatched, cant wait for the updated displays next year (2010)

[DeltaPhi79]

Dear God they're updating the LED ones? I mean.... Like adding a 30 inch LED one?

[killswitcher]

lol yeah, price tag is potentially scary though. Oh and we have 12 core Mac Pros to look foward to next year too, gona be a good year

[34skyline]

I also can't wait for LED displays for desktops especially the 30-Inch cinema it needs a update badly but I hope to see the 30 inch goes LED this year I got my money ready just waiting on Apple to release the damn thing.

[killswitcher]

lol yeah, a nice glossy 30 inch led backl-lite display.

[FreedomProductionZ]

lol they were soo happy when he said 30inch display N he said the price N every1 is lke silent lmfao

[Thegamer5150]

I bet any GFX card today thats ships with a new computer could run 2 30 inch DVI displays like those as long as its not intergrated GFX
