History

In July 2000, Apple replaced the 17" and 15" Studio Display monitors with new displays. The 15" monitor was renamed Studio Display LCD and the 17" Studio Display monitor was marketed in a transparent acrylic plastic enclosure. Both were equipped with ADC, Apple's new Apple Display Connector, which carried data, USB and power in a single cable. The 21" Studio Display monitor was discontinued. On May 21, 2001, Apple discontinued production of the last CRT monitor (17" DiamondTron) and launched a 17" LCD display.

Trivia

• In 2000, Apple revolutionized monitors with the ADC (Apple Display Connector), an innovative cable that transmitted data, USB, and power in a single connection. • The new 17" Studio Display was presented in a transparent acrylic enclosure, making the internal components of the monitor visible in Apple's characteristic design style. • In May 2001, Apple completely abandoned CRT technology, marking the end of the cathode ray tube monitor era and the beginning of the transition to LCD displays.
