What puzzles me is this part of the specs: > > Compatibility (PC): VGA up to 1440x900 non-interlaced > Compatibility (Mac): Power Mac" G3/G4/G5 up to 1152x870 (adapter > may be required) > FWIW, I just today got an Acer 19" Widescreen monitor, when plugged in the my system, it autodetected it as 1320 x something, a really odd size, but 1440x900 was in the list and it worked just fine. (This was with an original Mac Radeon card) BTW this was $185 at Buy.com <http://tinyurl.com/z8qq4> a sweet deal. I got it with the free shipping, they spec 5-8 days, I got it in two. -- Bruce Johnson This is the sig who says 'Ni!' -- Unsupported OS X is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Unsupported OS X list info <http://lowendmac.com/lists/unsupported.html> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:[email protected]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive <http://www.mail-archive.com/unsupportedosx%40mail.maclaunch.com/> iPod Accessories for Less at 1-800-iPOD.COM Fast Delivery, Low Price, Good Deal www.1800ipod.com -- Unsupported OS X is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Unsupported OS X list info <http://lowendmac.com/lists/unsupported.html> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:[email protected]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive <http://www.mail-archive.com/unsupportedosx%40mail.maclaunch.com/> iPod Accessories for Less at 1-800-iPOD.COM Fast Delivery, Low Price, Good Deal www.1800ipod.com
