Monitor/adapter suggestions
« on: September 17, 2015, 07:21:30 PM »
would like some suggestions on monitors.....

I have decided on one of two monitors for my main monitor with a 19 inch dell as my secondary external display..... should I go with a used dell 3007wfp or used APPLE A1083 CINEMA DISPLAY?

I got the new 2015 MacBook Pro 13" and only will be using ONE DISPLAYPORT AND THE HDMI CONNECTION to connect my monitors..... NOT TWO DISPLAYPORT ADAPTERS..... all monitors will use DVI..... suggestions on adapters?

suggestions?

With that budget why not get something nice and new like the U2515H for $350 rather than an old monitor.  LCD technology has improved hugely since 2006 when those two you mentioned came out.
