I am not one to buy a lot of things over the internet, but this experience has been great. I am very pleased with how easy it was to purchase. This product has been perfect. It came on time and plugged right in and has worked flawlessly.
Just get it.There are not a lot of them out there, most adapters (including the one sold by Apple) are the other way around: allow you to connect a DVI equipped video card to an Apple monitor. It works and if you need it, what are you going to do. If you own a G5 or other computer with the ADC connector on the video card, but do not have an Apple Cinema Display that requires that, with this adapter you can use any DVI equipped monitor. That simple.
It will work with any DVI monitor but does not support USB or power to the monitor like the port does to Apple displays with ADC monitors. No software needed and connection is a snap. You can connect the Dell monitor USB ports to the apple ports in back of the tower if equiped with USB out ports. I used this device to connect a second monitor to my Apple G5 tower. I have two Dell monitors with DVI inputs connected.
I got on Amazon, bought it, and used it on the ADC port on the card. hooking up a small flat-panel next to your main monitor is ENORMOUSLY helpful in clearing away the clutter and getting straight to your work. While at the Apple Store in town one day I asked the Mac guy at the Genius bar the best way to set up dual monitors.
Not a cheap piece of junk. Some software, like Dreamweaver CS4, includes a preset for organizing your workspace for dual monitors. If you haven't done dual monitors, and you use software with lots of palettes (Photoshop, Creative Suite, Painter, Final Cut, etc).
I have a Power Mac G5 with the stock NVidia GeForce 5200 card that came with it. It works like a charm, and easily and securely clips to the ADC port. After having used it, I can say that this is how everyone with a Power Mac should work.
He suggested this product, which they didn't have there. Instantaneous dual monitors.
[.].in Two minutes from receiving my cable, it was on my PowerMac G5 Tower running pictures to my second monitor.The Cable worked perfectly.
