Since there sometimes are people asking for a flat panel display
recommendation that works with SGI and/or Sun, I thought this might be
interesting.

Yesterday I got a new Dell 2005FPW 20" Widescreen Flat Panel monitor. I
tested it with a Sun Ultra10/440 Creator3D (which outputs Composite Sync)
and a SGI Octane Dual R10k ESI (which outputs Sync-on-Green). Both machines
worked perfectly with this display. Of course, the Octane can't use its full
resolution due to the lack of video bandwith and widescreen video modes.

The display has a very good panel with bright colors (it's even better than
my old 1600SW!), one DVI and one analog input for computers, and even two
video inputs (CVBS and Y/C) for video sources which also can be included as
Picture-in-Picture.

For that price there probably isn't a better display available that also
works with Sun and SGI.
