Hi
I looking to buy a new monitor for my Mac Mini. I want to get a LCD probably 19inches.

Does anyone have an opinion about the best one to get. or the cheapest.

besst one would probably be the 20 inch cinema display from Apple. The cheapest, i don't know

It depends on what you're going to do with it.

If you want a great picture at a low price, and space isn't an issue, get a 21" flat screen CRT.

If you want it to look "Cool" then get an LCD.

If space is at a premium, get an LCD.

If you want to be able to rotate the screen and work in portrait mode, get an LCD (but not an Apple one)

I use a 22" Trinitron CRT, but I have a huge desk. It runs at 1600x1200@85Hz with no problems.

Make sure the monitor has a DVI connection. The VGA output of the Mini is not within specifications.
