YAY!
Finally eh? It's about time too. And this is a MacRumors source, which has historically been pretty accurate.
And does this mean that there will be new Mac Pros released at MWSF? Good combination if you ask me.
Oh I'm certain. They'll be priced even higher.And maybe the existing ACDs will still be available as a lower-cost option.
LMAO
Possible features?
- LED with regular LCD option for a lower cost?
- New designs that take cues from the iPods, iMacs, and notebooks (does this mean that the Mac Pro will also get a design change?)?
- Higher resolutions (20": 1920·1200, 26.7": 2560·1600, 40": 3840·2400)?
- Additional features like HDMI?
- Built-in iSight as an option?
- Multi-touch (even if it's a secondary display)?

I like the idea of a 40" LCD with a 3840x2400 resolution. I use a 23" & 30" ACDs currently. A bigger screen is always better. Higher resolution is always better. Sometimes we have larger displays with lower resolution. Like my WWestinghouse 47" display. It goes up to a 1920x1080 for resolution with HDMI, 2DVI, 2 component & 2 composite/s-video for connections. then I also have a 28" ViewSonic that has the same resolution as the much smaller ACD of 1920x1200.
Most of these display cards say resolutions up to 2560x1600. Is that because the lack of displays that exceed those resolutions or for some other reasons.
I'm moving my ViewSonic to my bedroom with a TV tuner attached. This gives me an opening for a new 40" 3840x2400 display.

It's about time! Apple's displays, although nice, just seem a bit outdated and overpriced now comapred to what else is on the market
Apple hasn't been competitive in monitors for years, only suckers buy apple monitors. [...] They might as well just get out of the monitor business, they can't compete and I doubt they sell enough to make it worth the trouble.

The 40" Monitor seems too big. I don't even have a TV that has that big of a screen. I think they should stick with the standard 20" 23" and 30" screen sizes, but just change the exterior.
I am shopping for a monitor. Please point me to some of the 23" or 24" IPS displays cheaper than Apple's.
You might want to try being right before talking like that.
Well in all fairness I could see how one could interpret "sides" as bezel.
The next revision may have to be 20", 24", 30" since the H-IPS (most likely used) will be at that size.
Agreed yet again. You won't find one that is comparable or on par at a cheaper price range that offers some of what Apple's ACDs do. I am still looking for an IPS that offers FW400 on the side.![]()
my thoughts:
I dont know the displays very well so my ideas are short due to the lack of knowlage of the current series
- 20" 24" and 30" models.
- Will resemble the imac in a way but with a smaller footprint and face
- pivot on all models. being able to turn the display 90 degrees. great for viewing long web pages and documents.
I think bumping up all the sizes would be great: 22", 26", 32"
OMG, please don't tell me Apple is going to continue stonewalling Blu-Ray integration until 2009?
I heard somewhere that they are holding back because Sony isn't delivering slot-load Blu-Ray drives yet, or that they don't want to cannibalise iTunes movie rentals...
and Blu-Ray would be a threat to ?TV
If Blu-ray is a "threat" to apple TV, then just kiss apple TV goodbye right now.
I imagine the profit margins on antv are superior to those on a Blu-Ray add-in.
And you know, nothing is stopping you from putting a Blu-Ray drive in your PowerMac or Mac Pro. Heck, the latest slot-loads might just fit in a 17" MacBook Pro or iMac. Or just get a laptop drive, put it in a FireWire enclosure, and power it off the FW bus on your Mac.
