[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1197560, member: 24098"] Possible? Sure. Practical? Probably not - especially when a typical 19" widescreen monitor runs about $120. You'd have to disassemble the machine, pull the flex cable that feeds the display from the system board and then somehow adapt that to SVGA or DVI. For that, you'd need a pin-out, some solid soldering skills and lots of time. All for very little benefit since the G5's screen is what? 17"? [/QUOTE]
