I'm interested in knowing what options exist, actually. The crux of my question is if the new monitors will work with OS 9.2.2 on a G4. I have a graphics card that supports the old style HD monitor. My concern is whether one of the new monitors will work with 9.2, if anyone has firsthand experience?
