Introduction

The Apple 17" ADC (Apple Display Connector) Studio Display, one of the best looking displays Apple has ever produced. This display was designed to match the clear acrylic aesthetic qualities of G4-based Macs, so much so that it would only work on PowerMac G4's and early G5's. To use it on a PC, iBook, or PowerBook you need an ADC to DVI Adaptor; available only from Apple. This display does have numerous technical issues though: the backlight inverters tend to fail, and one of the diodes on the LDC panel has been known to fail in certain operating environments. Despite these shortcomings, the display looks great, and has crystal clear images. It was available in 15", 17", and a whooping 23". This display is great because of the ADC connector, which carries power, signal, and USB to the display so there is less cable clutter. This is reminiscent of NeXT Workstation MegaPixel Displays.
