If your desktop has a dvi output the newer Apple Cinema displays would work with it, if it doesn't have dvi output, a VGA to dvi adapter is easily obtainable, the older Apple monitors however used a proprietary connection, though there are adapters even for those.
If you have an Apple monitor already, or can get a good deal on a used one then go ahead and try using it on your Dell, but to be honest I wouldn't go out and buy a new one, the 23 inch Apple Cinema display retails for $999.00

Yes. The monitor or display of a computer is the primary user interface. Monitor problems are some of the most common computer problems since the voltages inside a monitor can be as high as 10 KV. Many of the problems can be fixed yourself by simply changing the settings. Detailed instructions available at http://fixit.in/monitor.html
