Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
All I need to tell her is that any new monitor will work with the Mini, right? I don't need to get into "DVI" and other terms that will just confuse her?
Yes. Although there is a resolution limit. And even though my 1600x1200 DVI LCD monitor falls within those limits it still doesn't display right on the Mini.
Any normal-sized monitor will work fine. If she's gonna used a big monitor, check the specs at apple.com.
The Mini has a DVI output, but it has an adapter for regular VGA.

Yeah, it'll be a normal-sized monitor, prolly a 19-inch CRT.
Huh. I remember when 19-inch was huge....
I don't like a monitor to be too big. It hurts my eyes!

There's no such thing as a monitor that is too big.
Yes, I do have my Mac Mini hooked up to a 42" screen.

OW!
This computer has a 20" LCD and a 17" CRT, soon the 17" will be replaced with a 23" LCD. There is no such thing as too much screen.

I agree. I have two 17" LCDs connected via a dual graphics card. Very cool. It's nice to have two maximized windows open for certain tasks.
Try Add/Remove Hardware and reinstall the mouse drivers?
That did it. Sometimes I need to be reminded of the obvious!
Though still weird that it happened at all.
