[edit] DA-15 or DB-15

The correct designation for the type of connector used on desktop Apple Macs prior to the B&W G3 is DA-15. Just because Mac manuals and "common knowledge" call it DB15 does not make it correct. See D-subminiature for an explanation; if you don't believe that then see (for example) www.ittcannon.com/media/pdf/catalogs/full/CO_Dsub_Euro.pdf (product catalogue of ITT Cannon who invented the connector) or DIN 41652-1, the definitive source.

[edit] The original 1987 Apple color display used a Trinitron aperture grille CRT

The text "The third generation of displays were introduced in the form of the Macintosh Color Display in 1992 and was the first Apple display to feature a Trinitron, or aperture grille, CRT." is incorrect.
