Most large screen TV's offer VGA inputs, although they can have odd limitations...mine is limited to 1024x768. Also you can connect a DVI output from the G5 to an HDMI or DVI input on the TV; I've done this with my AL powerbook at home. I get the full 1920x1080 resolution, albeit interlaced, not parallel. What you get is dependent on your video card. I got this <http://tinyurl.com/2oe9h3> from Monoprice and just connect it to the TV with a regular HDMI cable. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
