    ADC to VGA?

    Abodo, that's exactly what I did as well, and it works perfectly. I bought the ADC to DVI from B&H photo and I had several DVI to VGAs lying around (they come with all new macs) My new monitor comment was for vista, as he/she said his/her mac only had ADC and VGA and he/she wants to run 2 vgas

    ADC to VGA?

    just a thought... given the age of your mac (if it has ADC and VGA video) and the relatively low cost of new monitors (with DVI connections) a better investment than a new video card, would probably be a new DVI monitor and the ADC to DVI converter. then ADC - DVI monitor with adapter VGA -...

    External HD for iTunes

    what you CAN do is format your ipod as PC (it will still work perfectly on your mac at home and you can reload it from home) and then when you mount your ipod on your work PC, just play the music from itunes and your ipod. You can turn off syncing and manually update it from either machine. cheers

    I guess there's no way to have iphoto open when you attach a camera card, but not when you attach an iphone bummer

    Best Handbrake Settings for AppleTV

    I found a sweet spot for appletv, ipod and iphone video rips by using the Appletv setting and changing it to 2-pass. It takes twice as long, but the image is much brighter and the resulting file works on all 3 medium (as well as on my mac via itunes or quick time The newest version has a...

    ADC to VGA?

    I had thought the same thing HOWEVER, we had an old ADC monitor sitting in a closet here, so for kicks and giggles i hooked it up to the ADC on my g4 and now i am running 2 monitors one DVI and one ADC I see no reason why if you converted the ADC to VGA it would not work as well
