Hello all...!
So, a coworker buys a 27 inch iMac 2012. For work and personal related issues she needs now more screen real state. Also have to reuse a big chunk of info stored in a FireWire 800 HDD external. So she asked around and becomes to the conclusion she needs a Thunderbolt display. But talking with me, I suggested that a working 27 inch (not neccesarily Apple branded) and a Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter will fit the bill for her and saves her money. So, she have now two choices:
Choice 1: Buy the Thunderbolt display, Apple branded
Choice 2: Buy another cheap display and the Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter
And here I comes with the questions:
1-Price-wise what option seems better for you?
2-Going into choice 2, what monitors can you recommend in the cheapo range?
Thanks in advance....!
