    24 Inch Mac Display Has Died...recommendations?

    My 2011 MBP has been friends with my 2009 24 inch Mac display since its arrival at my house. However, the display has finally seen its last day and I was wondering (other than the latest Mac display), what MacRumors users would recommend with in the 170 to 300 range?

    How to get used to 60Hz Displays again?

    Wanted to buy a MacBook Pro so I went to the store to try one out. I have a 144Hz Monitor at home so the 60Hz Monitor felt very stuttery and incredibly cheap to me. I like MacBooks in theory and would love to buy one but I can’t bring myself to spend a premium on something feeling dirt cheap to me.

    iPad Pro + Asus monitor = black bars above/below the screen

    Hi all— Just bought an Anker USB-C hub with 4K HDMI output. I have an old Asus 1080p 27” monitor, and figured if I paired the two up with a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard I could have a pretty nice big-screen iPad hookup. It works! Except, the output is smaller than it should be. I know the iPad...
