[QUOTE="MacT, post: 1030478, member: 150029"] I've been shopping around for a monitor to hook my 13" white MB up to for working at home so I can have more screen real-estate to work with. My budget is a little limited at the moment so I was looking for something relatively low priced ($200 or less), and I found a monitor for sale on Newegg for $170. [url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824254045]Newegg.com - Hanns·G HH-231HPB Black 23" 5ms HDMI Widescreen Full HD LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 DCR 15000:1 (1000:1) Built-in Speakers - LCD Monitors[/url] It's a Hanns-G HH-231HPB monitor. I haven't come across this brand before and wanted to be sure I could connect it to my MB before I put the money down on it. It connects with VGA or HDMI so I know I would have to buy an adapter or two depending on which input I wanted to use. It also uses built-in speakers, so that would be one less thing to have on my desk. I suppose I have two questions: 1) Would it work with my Macbook? 2) What video input should I use? (Would it be worth it to go with Mini-DVI to DVI and then DVI to HDMI, or would it not make any difference?) [/QUOTE]
