Offered here is an original Apple Studio Display from 1998, model M4551, a highly sought-after piece for Apple collectors and vintage technology enthusiasts. >> This display comes complete with the original Apple 45W power adapter, which significantly adds to its desirability and value, as original adapters are often missing from surviving units. // Historical Background Introduced in 1998, the Apple Studio Display was created during Apple’s transition back to the professional market following Steve Jobs’ return. It was designed as a dedicated professional display to complement the Power Mac G3 Blue & White, offering improved color accuracy and a design language aligned with Apple’s late-1990s professional desktop lineup. It also offered an additional ADB (Apple Desktop Bus) port for connecting peripherals directly through the display. This model predates the later ADC displays and therefore requires a separate 45W Apple power adapter, which is included here. Units assembled in Korea originate from early production runs and are increasingly sought after by collectors. Manufactured in 1998, this model represents an important era in Apple’s design and hardware history, bridging the transition between classic Macintosh systems and the early iMac generation. // Important Auction Information Please note that this auction includes the Apple Studio Display ONLY, including its original 45W power adapter. The photographs showing a Power Mac G3 Blue & White, keyboard, and mouse are for demonstration and illustrative purposes only, to show the display in proper working condition and period-correct use. These additional items are not part of this auction. After payment has been completed, the winning bidder may contact the seller if interested in purchasing a Power Mac G3 and matching keyboard separately, to potentially complete a full vintage Apple setup. Why this item is special? – Authentic 1998 Apple Studio Display – Original Apple Studio Display 45W power adapter included – Assembled in Korea – increasingly rare production origin – Collectible design from Apple’s late-1990s professional lineup – Ideal for Apple collectors, vintage Mac setups, museums or display purposes // Condition Due to age, this item is sold as a collector’s piece. Condition is consistent with its age (please refer to photos for detailed cosmetic assessment). The display is in outstanding condition for a 1998 model and has been exceptionally well preserved. Typical age-related characteristics include slight discoloration of the cable and very minor hairline stress marks around the Apple logo, both commonly found on vintage Apple displays of this period. These cosmetic details are purely superficial and do not detract from the display’s appearance or performance. The screen itself is in top-tier condition, making this an excellent collector-grade example. // Adjustability & Mechanics The display features a fully adjustable stand, allowing smooth height adjustment as well as horizontal (landscape) and vertical (portrait) rotation. The adjustment mechanism remains fully functional and exceptionally smooth, reflecting the high build quality of Apple’s professional displays from this era. … one more thing!
