Wired News: Apple Lets Cat out of the Bag

Tuesday, June 29th, 2004

Wired News: Apple Lets Cat out of the Bag reports on Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference, where Jobs announced OS X version 10.4, code-named Tiger. He also introduced a new display:

Jobs also introduced Apple’s largest display yet: a 30-inch flat-panel display in a sleek, trim aluminum housing.

Complementing the company’s new 23-inch and 20-inch flat-panel screens, also in aluminum housing, the giant display will be available in the fall for $3,300.

Unlike its smaller siblings, the new screen will work only with Power Macs equipped with a new $600 GeForce video card from nVidia that features dual DVI outputs — one for each half of the 2,560 by 1,600, 4.1 million-pixel screen.

The geek in me actually got excited when I read that it required two DVI connections. Sick, I know.
