An Apple Cinema Display is the perfect companion for your new Mac Pro or MacBook Pro. Of course, two Apple displays would be even better. Featuring a sleek anodized aluminum case, one display can sit close to the next — for a virtually seamless picture. Connect your displays via industry-standard DVI and choose an optional VESA mount to install them anywhere.
