What I don't get is that it's been however many years with the same design, yet nobody else has gotten around to copying it - what's keeping them?
Got a tip for us?

I'm after a bit of help.. What're the probable changes to the new ACDs? I've found a 20" model for a pretty good price, and I'm just wondering if there's anything that I'll be really missing out on by getting this version.. I'd imagine I'll be getting this one or buying one once the new ones are out (lower price) but I'd like to be sure I'm doing the right thing.
The only thing I'd hope for would be more inputs and HDCP. So perhaps DVI, Component and HDMI w/ audio breakout port. This has been all that's held me off of picking up an ACD, I went for a Dell 6 weeks ago instead.... which, knowing my luck, means the Apple updates will be here soon
may be they will be updated this month?
Now this isnt that bad..

Beyond being the worst mockup and mock ad ever, it's just totally wrong.
And as was said, thin can kiss my @$$. Give me features and make it professional. The consumers can buy the thousands of other displays that inundate the market.
new screens at 'let's rock'?
I might be mistaken, but the screens to the left of the stage seem to be of a new design? http://stream.qtv.apple.com/events/sep/0809dt4bs89/m_08091776wrvx_650_ref.mov

With Apple evidently convincing the television studios that HDCP is not necessary for their HD content, that kind of takes away the need for new ACDs at the moment.
Yes, if the movie studios still demand it, it means no HD movie rentals/purchases, but Apple might be hoping that this initial test will be enough to convince the movie studio's iTunes DRM is sufficient for movies, as well.

Maybe Apple will even introduce real Cinema displays that are made for watching movies and TV and can replace a standard TV set.
Maybe that's the reason the Apple TV is not called iTV. Maybe they reserved the name for their TV sets with integrated display (just as iMacs have an integrated display)

SJ's obsession with thin is what's creating a lot of the issues I'm having with Apple lately.
Example, if the Macbook were just a little thicker you could "stack" 2 USB ports, leaving room for Firewire. Use a DVI connector, or even a full size DisplayPort.
He'd rather cut a few millimetres in thickness and in the process make the notebook less functional.
Can such a fixation on thinness indicate a possible mental disorder?
