It'll happily run most monitors at 800x600 with 1000s of colors - I've had
mine on up to 21" monitors with no problems but I've found the 17" apple
multisync works very nicely although at 800x600 I prefer the 15" multisync.
The 2400 can drive resolutions between 640x480 and 1024x768 although the
only way to use the LCD and an external monitor is at 800x600 simulscan
mode...
Hope this helps.
