| bahzell's Full Review: Apple Studio Display 17 inch CRT Monitor |
Eye Candy. Not only can it display eye candy, but it IS eye candy. Quite simply, these monitors are beautiful to look at. And the ones that ship with the PowerMac G4 share the graphite color scheme.
The tripod base/stand is really great, you can turn the monitor completly around and it'll still be situated correctly, not to mention, you can keep all sorts of paper work and other clutter from your desk underneath it, oh and the keyboard too. Also, there's plenty of space around the viewable image to stick notes and whatever up, although I don't know why you would want to ruin the outline.
Preformance wise, this monitor is pretty darn good. It supports 640 x 480, 800 x 600, and 1024 x 768 at 85hz, 832 x 624, 1152 x 870, 1280 x 1024 at 75 hz, and 1600 x 1200 at 60hz, so it has really good refreash rates for the more common resolutions.
In my not so unbiased opinion, there really isn't all that much wrong with this monitor, it even has a standard VGA connection. The only thing I don't like is the amount of boarder space around the screen...but then, I don't like to stick things to my monitor. Anyways, this is a great monitor for any use.
