Ngesikhathi kukhishwa i-Cinema Display, nokho, ukuthanda kuka-Apple ukuba mncane kwakungakabi sobala kangako - umqaphi wayebukeka eguquguquka kakhulu.
Igalari yezithombe

Akuyona kuphela imibala enikezwa i-LCD Cinema Display engazange iqhathaniswe naleyo enikezwa abanduleli bayo be-CRT. I-Cinema Display inikeze ukubukeka kwesilinganiso okungu-16:9 kanye nesixazululo esingu-1600 x 1024. Izithameli eziyinhloko ezihlosiwe zeCinema Display kwakungochwepheshe bezithombe nabanye abasunguli ababekhungatheke kakhulu ngokunikela kwe-Apple kokungalungi kuze kube manje.
I-Cinema Display yayiklanyelwe ukusebenza kahle nolayini wekhompyutha we-Power Mac G4 owawusezingeni eliphezulu. Ngaleso sikhathi, yayihlinzeka ngokusebenza okuphezulu kwehluzo neminye imisebenzi ethuthukisiwe, eyayihlose ngayo ikakhulukazi abasebenzisi abathuthukile bemikhiqizo yama-apula. Idizayini yemodeli yokuqala ye-Cinema Display, efana ne-easel yokudweba, iphinde ibhekisele eqinisweni lokuthi ukuqapha kuhloselwe umsebenzi wokudala.

Le khompuyutha ye-All-in-one yabona ukukhanya kosuku ngoJanuwari 2003 futhi yaziqhenya ngesiqapha i-LCD esingama-intshi ayishumi nanhlanu - kusukela ngo-4, i-iMac GXNUMX yayitholakala nenguqulo ye-intshi eyishumi nesikhombisa yemonitha.
Nakuba izibonisi ze-LCD bezimba eqolo kunezandulelayo ze-CRT, ukusetshenziswa kwazo kulethe izinzuzo eziningi ngendlela yokunciphisa ukusetshenziswa kwamandla, ukugqama okwandisiwe kanye nokuncipha komphumela olokozayo obangelwa izinga lokuvuselela kancane lokuboniswa kwe-CRT.
Iminyaka eyishumi futhi eyanele
Ukuthuthukiswa nokukhiqizwa kweziqaphi ze-Cinema Display eziguquguqukayo kuthathe cishe iminyaka eyishumi, kodwa ama-monitor aqhubeka nokudayiswa isikhathi esithile ngemva kokuphela kokukhiqiza. Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, kwaba nokwenyuka kancane kancane kwezidingo zabasebenzisi kanye nokwandiswa kanyekanye kanye nokuthuthukiswa kwabaqaphi, i-diagonal yayo efinyelele amayintshi angamashumi amathathu ahloniphekile. Ngo-2008, ama-Cinema displays athole ukuthuthukiswa okukhulu ngokwengezwa kwekhamera yewebhu ye-iSight eyakhelwe ngaphakathi.

Abazange bahlale emakethe cishe isikhathi eside njengabangaphambi kwabo - bayeka ukukhiqizwa ngoJuni 2016.
Kodwa-ke, ifa le-Cinema Display monitors lisabonakala kakhulu futhi lingabonwa nganoma yimaphi ama-iMacs.
