Andrew, if you're going to do Mac Laptop repair or iMac, MacMini or MacPro repair, you just have to be able to test the GPU output via the video port. This machine uses the Mini DisplayPort.
I use an old monitor with two video inputs. I have a DVI cable on one and a VGA on the other. I also have a box full of assorted adapters. Just start with the one you need and build your collection as you need them.
