27 lbs is not bad for such a large monitor. Dual 30" displays? I just got goose bumps....

They even had a single G5 with dual 30" displays. It was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. I only played with the computers for a few minutes, but the displays looked excellent. They were crisp and bright, seemed to have good color and I didn't notice any shifting when I moved my head. I can't say I lifted the thing though. Here are the specs off Apple's website: 30-inch Apple Cinema HD Display Height: 21.3 inches (54.3 cm) Width: 27.2 inches (68.8 cm) Depth: 8.46 inches (21.5 cm) Weight: 27.5 pounds (12.47 kg) Jeremy Stoller Senior Graphic Artist California Science Center (213) 744-2532 [log in to unmask] www.CaliforniaScienceCenter.org ---------- From: SciArt-L Discussion List-for Natural Science Illustration- on behalf of Karl Gehrman Reply To: SciArt-L Discussion List-for Natural Science Illustration- Sent: Friday, September 17, 2004 2:22 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Speaking of Monitors Is anyone actually working on the new 30-inch Cinema HD. Do you like it? Any bugs. How heavy is this thing, I could not find the weight on Apple's site(quick searching). Someone of you really successful, extremely wealthy natural artists can afford this $4,000.00 puppy...I have to believe this to give myself inspiration and hope.
