I was looking around for a cheap TFT screen for a while now, mainly to connect to my Mac Mini in case my Macbook was back to the shop. The last few times my or Melinda’s Macbook was gone for repairs we were acting as if there wasn’t any other computer to work on, while our Mac Mini was just sitting there.

As it had to be cheap, i was actually just looking for a 15″ little old TFT, so imagine my surprise when I found this beautiful monitor on Gumtree for just £40/€55/£80! I had to pick it up though in south London and the first time I went to pick it up I forgot both my phone and the address. The second day I was able to pick it up, and guess what: it works, wasn’t a scam, and the screen is only 4 months old!

Next up: speakers and a webcam. Does anyone know how to get a Sony EyeToy to work on a Mac Mini?
