NeXT MegaPixel Display

The original MegaPixel Display released in 1990 was a monochrome 17" monitor displaying four brightness levels (black, dark gray, light gray, and white) in a fixed resolution of 1120 × 832 at 92 DPI (just shy of a true megapixel at 931,840 total pixels) at 68 Hz.

This led to extreme screen dimming after some years of use, especially when the computer was not turned off overnight as in a server setup or in a busy software lab.

This problem was later rectified with the now ultra rare[citation needed] 4000A model rated at 10,000 hours (~14 months).

The stand also features two rollers that can be used to move the monitor back and forth despite its heavy weight.

The stand also provides a place for the keyboard when not in use, freeing up the (real) desktop in front.
