Apple Multiple Scan 15AV Display

The Apple Multiple Scan 15AV Display is a high-quality, yet affordable, half-page monitor that’s perfect for consumer and education users. It features a sleek new design and offers a host of advanced features to complement the capabilities of your Macintosh Performa, Power Macintosh, or Macintosh PowerBook system. ( With the addition of an adapter, it can also be used with PCs running Windows.)

Featuring a flat, square shadow mask screen that provides a larger viewing area than many other 15-inch monitors (13.75-inch viewable image size), the Apple Multiple Scan 15AV Display offers outstanding video performance, including ColorSync profiles for precise color matching. Because it’s based on multiple-scan technology, this display lets you select the resolution that best suits the application in which you are working. For example, you might select a lower resolution to work on a presentation or view a QuickTime movie, and then switch to a higher resolution to check on the details of a page-layout document— without having to restart your system. And the Apple Multiple Scan 15AV Display’s front-facing integrated stereo speakers and front-panel headphone jack make it ideal for working with multimedia.

The Apple Multiple Scan 15AV Display is both simple to set up and enjoyable to use. To minimize static electricity buildup and distortion, it features an advanced antistatic, anti-glare coating. Its conveniently located controls let you adjust brightness, contrast, speaker volume, horizontal/ vertical size, and centering for optimal viewing perfomance. And it complies with the Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star guidelines for power conservation.

Yet even with all of these features, the Apple Multiple Scan 15AV Display remains affordable— making it the perfect choice for users whose work requires a high-quality, flexible, color viewing solution.
