I’m another happy ASUS user. I’ve got the VN247, 23” model; VGA and two HDMI ports. One HDMI goes to my iMac and the other runs over to a Raspberry Pi micro processor. I like having dual monitors on the Mac, as it allows me the real estate to have WSJT-X, JT Bridge, and MacLoggerDX all up and visible at the same time. I would imagine this unit would work equally well with the P3 connected to it, as it is quite modifiable. I vaguely remember paying about $135 for it at a local Office Depot.
