How well will mirroring/spanning work when using the Dell 2407 with my G5 iMac? Do the specs match-up or willl there be some image distortion or other problem?
I'm new at this external monitor stuff so Forgive Me...

Dell 2407:
To optimize this monitor's performance, your system must be able to support WUXGA resolution (1920x1200).
I suppose that I would need a VGA cable to connect the monitor to my iMac?
I'm going to look at the Samsung too, but the Dell is tempting because it is available through Costco.com... with a 90 day return policy.
