Bad Apple

„This is where the serious torquing (torqueing?) off begins. Every other monitor repair shop I've found charges a flat fee of about $100 to fix a 17" LCD (plus parts for a voltage inverter, but those aren't expensive). So, Apple is waaaay above market in that area. But, those same monitor repair shops generally won't work on Apple displays, because they can't get the parts.“

„Since introducing the proprietary Apple Display Connector (ADC) on its LCD monitors and computers in summer 2000, the Cupertino, Calif.-based company has had a virtual lock on digital flat-panel Mac sales. While Macs also come with an analog connector, digital connectors are better at delivering crisper, flicker-free images.“ posted on 2004/12/22http://news.com.com/.../ 2100-1040_3-274443.html - Cached
„The Apple 17-inch cathode ray tube (CRT ) monitor--the last model available of this type--is being retired as the company makes a transition to all liquid-crystal display (LCD ), or flat-panel, monitors. Apple currently offers 15-inch and 22-inch LCD panels.“ posted on 2004/12/22http://news.com.com/.../ 2100-1040_3-256954.html - Cached
„The past few weeks haven't exactly provided stellar examples of the vaunted Apple product quality around this household. First, there was the Changing of the Monitor Guard , as I finally gave up on the 17" Studio Display in favor of a NEC LCD screen (which, btw, I continue to love).“http://www.ericsiegmund.com/fireant/archivesmt/ cat_tech.html#001215 - Cached

„Jobs also introduced improved 20-inch and 23-inch monitors, as well as a new 30-inch LCD, all with new aluminum cases. The 30-inch flat-panel monitor will set buyers back more than $3,000, plus the cost of a high-end graphics card.“ posted on 2004/12/22http://news.com.com/.../ 2100-1001_3-5250346.html - Cached
„According to the Apple Website, The Cinema Display has "lightning-fast pixel response for full-motion digital video playback." They weren't overstating their claim either... I could not detect any of the "ghosting" that occurs with some LCD monitors when high action/fast movement video sequences are displayed.“http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/ b000067v08?v=glance - Cached
