If you need accurate, predictable color from your display, day in and day out, and you’re willing to pay a premium price for it, the Sony Artisan Color Reference System—a CRT display and calibrator—will give you your money’s worth.

This device’s cluster of cables can make connectionconfusing, but setup is simple and display quality is just as crisp as with an ADC video card.

The small conversion box with USB and DVI inputs along one side and ADC and power inputs on the opposite side keep things tidy, and display quality is just as clear as with an ADC video card.

Ex-tend-it VGA to ADC

This converter box enables owners of VGA-only PowerBook G4s to extend, but not mirror, their desktops on Apple’s LCD displays. The solution is a bit pricey and hardware intensive, so unless you’re a die-hard fan of Apple’s display designs, you may prefer to spend the money on a larger analog display instead.

The superbright PowerLite 720c, which features an ample 1,500 ANSI lumens, impressed us. The extra brightness will come in handy should you need to project a large image that an audience will view from many feet away. It displays sharp text with no jitter and has several other nice, Mac-savvy features.

This DLP-based projector comes with a thin, small remote. Small text in our Excel spreadsheet was slightly smeared and a small amount of jitter was noticeable up close; however, from a normal viewing distance of six feet or more, even the smallest text was clear and readable. It also projected too-dark reds and undersaturated greens.
