[G4] Re: G4 Digest, Vol 14, Issue 17

[Tom Lawson]

Frank:
A suggestion. I have a Sawtooth G4 and had no display, so was looking to buy
an Apple display. Instead, I found a coupon for $300 off on Ebay (for
.99cents) and got a new Dell 24" display for $803.00 Popular Computing rated
this display #5 out of the top 100 inventions for 2005. It is truly awesome
and uses the video card that was in the AGP G-4, with 1920x1200 resolution.
I am very happy with this display so, in case you are stuck with a high
repair bill for a 17 or 20" monitor, may I suggest you consider the Dell 24"
monitor.
