The Apple 20-Inch Cinema Display (Aluminum), designed to aesthetically complement the previously introduced Power Macintosh G5 and PowerBook G4 models, features a 20-inch wide-format (1680x1050) active-matrix LCD display and dual FireWire "400" and dual USB 2.0 ports.
It is housed in an "aluminum design with a very thin bezel, suspended by an aluminum stand with an adjustable hinge that makes tilting the display almost effortless", and supports the "Electronics Standards Association (VESA) mounting interface standard" which makes it easy to mount this display on a kiosk, wall, or articulating arm.
This model uses the industry standard DVI (Digital Video Interface) and consequently is compatible with all DVI-equipped Power Macs and PowerBooks, in addition to properly equipped Windows PCs.
