DELL 24″ display
Any thoughts on Dell’s 24″ display..? I’m assuming that it’s compatible with a G5..?
Cheers,

Absolutely. I have two. STUNNING image.
Barefeats has it beating the Apple 23″ display rather soundly. And far cheaper too. Wait until a coupon for them becomes available

I second that! The Dell Monitor works with Mac and is Mactastic!

Another editor here just got one. I’m jealous (I have a Cinema Display 23″).
The Dell has an adjustable platform so you can raise it very high. This can save your neck from getting destroyed over the years.
I know most editor’s desks have a high-up monitor stand in the back, but I find that for newer high-res monitors such as these, the monitor stand is just too far away and you’ll be hunching forward trying to read small text and such.

The Dell monitors also have additional inputs–DVI, VGA, S-video and composite. I have one that connected to a XP PC via VGA and to my Mac via DVI. I can switch from a button directly on the front bezel of the Dell Monitor.
Enjoy,
BryceDon’t worry Mr. B. I have a cunning plan…

Not to mention that it also displays HD through component inputs…

I reasearched a lot before I bought a Dell 24″. I edit on it every day and love it! The only thing is that it takes about 30-60 seconds to fully warm up, but then it’s big and beautiful!
