Emasher Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 I'm planning on buying one of these: http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?sku_id=0665000FS10089669&catid=25074&logon=&langid=EN sometime next week. I'll also be buying one of these: http://www.selloffaccessories.com/wiips3-vga-cable-black-black-vga-cable-for-wii-and-ps3-p-94.html to hook it up to my Wii. I'll probably just buy a cheaper DVI cable to hook it up to my Powerbook. The reason I'm posting this is I don't know that much about monitors and so I'd like to get some advice from someone who does. So, is there any reason I should buy another monitor rather than this one or a different Wii VGA cable?
Supercube Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 Presuming you're buying from this site then be careful with import duties and power supply. I'd feel much more comfortable getting something of that size and expense from somewhere closer to home. Amazon have some acceptable 19" Acer monitors for around the same price and it's free delivery from them.

Emasher Posted July 22, 2008 Author Posted July 22, 2008 Well, I've bought the monitor now. I'm probably going to order the VGA cable soon.
