20" Display??

Mike Teezie · Jan 18, 2004, 07:27 PM

I'm thinking of getting one this week to go with my new Powermac. The only thing is, I kind of want to know how big its going to be compared to what Im used to, a 15" Powerbook.

Does anyone here have both?

And if so, does anyone have any pics? I'm looking to see some pics of a 20" Display on some normal sized desks and whatnot to see if I am going to have to move everything around.

Thanks!

wait to see if anything big happens on or before the 24th. New displays may be on the way...

I don't believe that displays really have "due times". They aren't computers and don't need to follow a certain schedule. that being said i would wait until the end of january , past the 26th, and see what happens.

due times no ... but design times ... they don't really match the design concepts of anything apple has out

Any word (rumors) on what the designs will be?

I don't see what they can update on the displays (besides the look, of course). I like the dsigns of the ones now and Im not sure how a G5 matching display would look. Id say wait until the 20th and if nothing new comes out then get the current one.

Sure would be nice if they'd update the price, though
