I have a G4 and wondered if anyone knew if this monitor

is Mac compatible?

Can`t see on the description if it is or not - and it`s such a good price.

Thanks.

According to the HP webby it only has a VGA input. I don`t know much about Macs, but I would expect a newer one to have a DVI connector.

If you`ve got VGA out it should be OK, if not you may be able to buy a VGA to DVI convertor, but I`m not sure.

Well, it is Mac compatible and the first time i used it it was fine. Now every time I start up Mac the monitor flickers really badly as though there`s interference and won`t stop flickering until I switch monitor off and then back on again. Anybody else had this problem?
