Hi. I am just about to take the plubge and buy a G5 DP1.8 but the thing that is really bugging me is display choice. Is it true that you can in fact use any display (with the right type of connectors obviously)? Or do you need a monitor that is apple compatible? Theoretically I realise that I can use any monitor but I can't afford to buy a monitor that won't work with the G5. I was looking in particular at the LG L1710S. Any suggestions to other monitors would also be helpful.
Thanks

Hi, glad you raised this point, I've been a bit concerned that an extremely large, heavyweight 19" apple display which someone let me have a few days ago (with a couple of old powermacs thrown in for £100.00 )might be incompatible with my planned purchase of a G5.
I cant see the connector round the back as I cant ***** move it! I'd like to be be able to re assign the cash I've saved on a big screen monitor, to pay for some other gadgets like maybe a little Mackie mixer or something.
I'm pretty perplexed looking at all the arcane little symbols describing the functions of peculiar scuzzis, plus 'little round ones'(!) and other pre USB sockets on the powermacs.
I must admit that although their function isnt clear just yet, for connectivity the plethora of ins+outs on the old powermacs seems generous compared with the later imac.
Surely somebody makes adapters for using gear from discontinued models?
regards John
