Help with Monitor Adapter
Hey guys,
Okay, I have purchased the PC and i've looked online everywhere, but I can't seem to find an adapter that will let me hook up my Apple flatscreen DVI monitor with the PC. Can someone please point me out in the right direction? Thanks a million!

Just like back in Saigon! Eh, slick?

Here's a bunch of converters:

Does your PC only have VGA? If so, it'd probably be cheaper to just buy a video card for it that has DVI.

Re: Help with Monitor Adapter
I second that - get a DVI video card.
But if your Appe Flat Screen has an ADC connector (no seperate power cable= ADC) then you need an adaptor, since no PC video cards have ADC.
