playdrumsalot: Should I get a Apple Cinema display or a LCD TV for my Powermac G5?
I am planning to buy some type of monitor for my Powermac G5. The Mac Cinema display is $ 899 and is 24 inches. However, I am thinking that I can get a decent sized flat screen tv for that price or less. My question is, would there be any lag using the tv for computer purposes such as video editing etc. Or should I just get the Cinema Display.

You can get a decent 24″ Acer, HP,Samsung, Viewsonic etc monitor for around $ 299 (maybe less) and save $ 600…
Shows how overpriced Apple is
Answer by aviatingamateurThe Apple 24″ LED Cinema Display will not work with your Powermac G5.
You will have to use some other monitor.
The LED Cinema Display will only work with the newer Macs that have a miniDisplayPort– It will not work with older Macs that only have ACD, VGA or DVI.
