Best LCD Monitor for PS3 and Macbook Pro Use?

Q. Hi!
What monitor would be able to run my ps3 at full 1080p (does not need to have speakers) and my macbook pro? I would prefer using an HDMI cable for the ps3 and a dvi cable for the macbook pro. I would need it to be at least 24" and the cheaper, the better.
Thanks!

A. Well, you are going to want a wide-screen monitor. We have been using Dell's LCD monitor family for some time. We've stayed away from their lowest-end models, but have been very pleased with the performance of their mid-stream models. I am on a 24" Dell 2408FWP with a MacBook Pro right now and it works spectacularly with both the native Mac OS as well as running Windows under Parallels.

This particular family has been discontinued, but their replacement line (U2410) is similar in performance and has even more connector types - two DVI inputs, HDMI, DisplayPort, Component and more. Very easy to hook up multiple sources, and if you do want a built-in speaker, the "sound bar" Dell sells attaches to the monitor and is attractive and space-saving (but is NOT what I would call a high-performance speaker system).

Current retail pricing is $599, but they are OFTEN running specials and discounts - and you can always just call Dell directly and ask the sales person to quote you a price that will beat the web price.

A. I don't know much about macbooks. but if you have an "HDMI" port on your mac, go buy an HDMI to HDMI cable; (They have all different lengths, depending on how far your laptop will be from the monitor, you choose the length.) they can range from 2 to 25 dollars about, depending on who you buy them from and what length they are. I recommend buying them from places like wal-mart or target, and avoiding places like radioshack. (Also, this is the easiest way, and best resolution, ranging all the way to 1080p. while VGA is low def, and you have to screw it in.)
