[Mac-talk] help needed with monitor purchase

[Phil Tanny]

Hi guys,

I'm buying a used Mac, and a new monitor.    I'm trying to understand
if they will work together.

Do you see any problem connecting this Mac and monitor?

What kind of resolution can a 16mb video card deliver?

Although I know little about this, I'm guessing I can connect
these two as is, but I may not get the full resolution the monitor
is capable of.  In which case, I'd need to buy a new video
card as well?   Do I have that right?

Thanks a lot for any advice!
