I am running a PC with Linux at the moment, with a CRT. I am thinking of getting a flat LCD and the Apple one seems quite nice:

However, the last time I see it says the 20 inch or above will only work on Mac OSX and NOT Windows XP.

Now it says VESA compatiable, so does it mean that it will work on Linux???

I am looking at the 20inch btw.

Thanks.

I just stumped up for the 23" version...
The instruction manual says it will work with windows given the right graphics card.
I'm using it on a mac, but I do have a slackware box with a NV 6600GT which I intend to try it on.
It is a great screen btw, far better than my old Iiyama A201HT...
I'll endeavour to post back with some more info when I get back from work...

From apple.com...

After looking at:

It looks like even the 30" model will work - given a suitable vga card.

When I have time - I'll try it out myself...
