Never thought I'd see the day! (Studio Display 15-inch flat panel Rev A)

[Hopfenholz]

I would love one of these! Unfortunately I have only seen a very slim handful for sale here in the UK, all in bad condition and at very high prices. The dream scenario would be to get rid of my B&W Studio CRT and replace it with a B&W Studio TFT.

Side note: the reintroduction of the Studio Display moniker has made it quite a lot harder to keep an eye out for these things.

I have a working B&W 15" TFT (no height stand, just the tripod leg so it does stand up) which I would be open to swapping for the right kit. Looking for 68k powerbooks and ethernet cards for IIci and SE/30

I can't believe I'm the proud owner of this beauty!

Absolutely superb, one of my all-time favourite bits of Apple kit. As others have said, the blue-black is so beautiful and hints at a whole world of alternative Apple colourways that could have happened if they hadn't gone down the B&W route

I regret selling mine. They sure are neat looking.

That's a kind offer but sadly I don't think I have anything good to offer you for a trade. I've spent the last couple of months selling off the majority of my loose piles of electronics bits. All I've really got left on the Mac side of things are a few floppy disks and a mountain of PowerMac G4 parts. Plus, I'm not sure one of those B&W beauties would survive shipping very well at all...

I have the Rev. B VGA port, B&W one. I did try to get it to work with an adapter on my IIfx, but it appears no-go.

Same here... very odd. I've tried all manner of "VGA" settings with an Interware and Q700 on-board video - all I get is a NO VIDEO SIGNAL message.

They are really really cool! Sadly they only work decently with PPC macs. Be careful with the stand, the plastic bits holding the main spring inside snapped on mine, and it‘s extremely difficult to repair!

The Rev A and Rev B have composite and S-Video inputs, so they work with decades worth of products!
