Apple's clear 17-inch Natural Flat Diamondtron CRT combines analogue video, USB and power through ADC, with internal colour calibration and a brighter Theatre Mode for video.
Theatre Mode increases screen brightness for full-screen movie playback; no brightness figure is published

Supported signal modes
Maker lists 1600 × 1200 at 65 Hz, 1280 × 1024 at 75 Hz, 1056 × 792 at 96 Hz, 1024 × 768 at 99 Hz, 832 × 624 at 120 Hz, 800 × 600 at 125 Hz and 640 × 480 at 153 Hz. Horizontal scan specification 80 kHz; vertical scan 60–160 Hz. These are selectable CRT modes, not a fixed native matrix or one native refresh rate.
Screen coating
Antireflective and antistatic screen coating
Calibration
Internal calibration, gamma adjustment and variable 4100–9300 K white-point selection; maker states designed for PANTONE colour reproduction
Connections

Other connections
ADC carries analogue video, USB data and power. This CRT uses the analogue signals within ADC, unlike the digital ADC LCDs; do not assume a digital-only DVI-to-ADC adaptor works.
USB hub detail
Two self-powered USB 1.1 ports on the right side of the display; maker notes support for Power Mac G4 Cube USB speakers

Software
Apple's US announcement says available immediately on 19 July 2000. Requires a Power Mac G4 Cube or Power Mac G4 with ADC. Support112524 labels 1600 × 1200 at 65 Hz as native, but it is a supported signal mode on an analogue CRT without a fixed native matrix. Brightness, contrast ratio and pixel density are omitted. The service manual rounds weight to 20 kg in handling instructions; published technical article 58673 specifies 20.7 kg.
