Connecting 2 monitors to my G5

I have 2 flat screen monitors (NEC not Apple), both with VGA connectors . Just bought a G5 and have connected one but not the other. The remaining port I believe is only for Apple monitors. Is there a way I can connect the other VGA monitor without installing a new graphics card?

You vid card has: one ADC connector (use an adapter such as http://www.drbott.com/prod/db.lasso?code=0117-ADCV to change ADC to VGA) and you also have a DVI connector (which I think you are using already with a DVI to VGA adapter that came with your G5, right?)

Of course, you can get somewhat better image quality if your Flat panels had DVI connectors (gives you digital instead of VGA's analog signal)
