The original AppleVision
Of course, Stephen Hackett at 512 Pixels has the details about Apple’s re-use of the “Apple Vision” name:
Apple has had other products with “vision” in their names over the years. Seven products, to be exact, and all of them are long-forgotten CRT displays:
- AudioVision 14 Display
- AppleVision 1710 & AppleVision 1710AV
- AppleVision/ColorSync 750 & AppleVision/ColorSync 750AV
- AppleVision/ColorSync 850 & AppleVision/ColorSync 850AV
This was very early in my Mac career, but I do remember these monitors. Apple has proven remarkably adept at re-using names from its past when it suits them. This is the perfect opportunity for AppleVision—sorry, Apple Vision—to ride again.
