Hi, can anyone tell me what colour their new 17" apple display is?
On the apple web site it's dark blue, in pictures from Mac Expo it's black, and some websites are showing a creamy colour version. I've ordered one with my cube but could be another week yet before we receive them here in England, can anyone help?

The Blue & Cream monitors are iMac's!
I'm suuure glad I'm not English, (I say in a heavily effected American accent! ) Uhum.
(You are obviously a prime example of the under investment in our education system!)

BTW the monitor is none of the colours you suggested, it's opaque (or see-through, if you really are as simple as your first post implies)!

All in jest

The current one is gray, silver, and clear. The previous one is translucent gray and white. The one before that (which, other than color, is the same as the tranlucent gray one) is translucent blue and white.

*faceplate: silver/grey, almost pearlescent ( same as G4 ) covered in a frosted clear.
*Picture-tube housing: dark indigo blue ( almost black ).
*Monitor cover & base: clear "polycabonate like".
*Trim: dark blue stripe & logo.
*Inner guts: mostly flat black.
