Anyone know if this Apple Monitor would work with my 2 year old Dell Vosotro 400? :

21-Inch Apple Studio Display (Blueberry - CRT) Specs @ EveryMac.com

I have a neighbor ready to sell it to me for $50 but the specs in the above link say Mac OS and refer to a mini d-sub vga.

Would be nice until I can get a 30" Dell or HP or a huge 1080p HDTV!

I don't know, but my guess would be yes. "Mini d-sub vga" is just the standard vga connector.

Thanks for the responses Fluxsmith and MetalTrade.

I picked it up and am using now. Best hi-res monitor I've ever used for color.

And BigMikes forum even fits on the screen with my bookmarks still open.

Emini the 21" Apple at 1600 x 1200 is the best web browsing, reading and video monitor I've ever used but I haven't had all that much experience.

The Apple won't work with my NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GTS video card. It'll only work off the VGA integrated video connection. The NVIDIA control panel recognizes it but nothing displays.

So I'm back using my Dell 24" LCD with a 17" Compaq CRT.

Bummer cuz its a joy web browsing with the Apple 21".

Emini I have my 24" Dell at 1920 x 1200 and still wish I had a lot more room. Aslan recommends a 30" Dell here:



...but they're big bucks.
