No, you do not need to buy an Apple Thunderbolt display. They are really cool, but not needed. No, you do not need to suffer with a USB display. They are workable, but not as nice. Just get the appropriate adapter and you can use any normal DVI display in a Thunderbolt Mac. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB570Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDA5OQ --lonnie /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
