[QUOTE="PGB1, post: 1913594, member: 76746"] Hello All! I apologize if this is in the wrong forum section. I'll buy soon a small MacBook Air or Pro & use it with a 24 or 27" non-Apple external monitor. When monitor shopping, I noticed that those equipped with Thunderbolt connections were substantially more expensive than those without. I've read many articles saying it is a must for any Mac computer to avoid lag & others that say to skip it unless one does video editing or detailed graphic art. So, I'm conflicted. I use the computer for writing documents, spreadsheets, on line research, e-mail and once in a while a You Tube video. I also do relatively simple CAD drawings. Photo editing is done, but fine detail isn't necessary, nor visible to by eyesight. No video editing is done, nor is print-art graphics. (Artist I am not) Does Thunderbolt sound worth the extra cost for my uses? Do any of you have monitors that you enjoy using with the Mac? Thanks For Helping me choose this monitor.
