Apple displays are a perfect companion for your new Mac Pro. And now it’s even easier to use one as a second display for your MacBook Pro, MacBook, iMac, or Mac mini — or even your PC. Using a pure digital signal over an industry-standard DVI connector, Apple flat-panel displays deliver the maximum visual quality possible.
Pure Signal
When you need to manipulate color in any medium, image distortion is not an option. As you move to monitors with higher resolutions or longer cables, analog conversion problems caused by a VGA connection become progressively worse. These issues fade away with an all-digital signal. DVI transmits a digital signal from a digital location in the graphics card to a digital location on the display screen. So you get the full clarity and stability of liquid crystal technology — with sharp, clear pixels.
Lose Controls
With a VGA connection, you have to futz with controls for power, brightness and contrast, fine tracking and coarse tracking, white and black balance controls, as well as horizontal and vertical positions. Not so on an Apple display. Tucked away on the side are the only controls you really need: brightness and power. So you can save your control-freak tendencies for where they really matter — your work.
