I have a Mac G4 AGP and want to get a 19" LCD but don't know if the video card I have will be good enough. I have a Radeon, Rage 128 Pro (16MB). I don't care about gaming. Can anyone help? Thanks much.

You should be fine, as long as you don't run anything that is 3D intesive. Most 19 inch screens have a resolution of 1280 x 1024. The max resolution for that card is 1920x1200. Check out the following link for more info:

Thank you, thank you!! That is exactly the info I have been hunting high and low to find. I will check out the URL you put in your reply. What a relief. I wasn't sure how I was gonna be able to get the 9800Pro and a monitor. Whew. Now all I need to find out is if the DVI slot on the back of my computer will work on whatever monitor I decide on. It's a 15 pin and most seem to come w/ 24 pin. Again: thank you so much.
