Does any one know if third party LCD monitors will work with early AGP G4 (analogue out only)?
Not looking to spend much money - any recommendations?

Thanks
John

Nearly every LCD monitor supports VGA in. So pretty much every LCD *except* an Apple model will work. You can look on CNET or other places for reviews -- I have a Sony 18" model hooked up to my PC over DVI. It's great.

Of course, they are not *nearly* as clear with VGA in as they are with digital video in (DVI or ACD). I'd actually recommend you look at getting a Geforce 2 MX with ADC out and using a monitor which supports ADC in, actually, for the long run.
