Works perfectly No great mystery here. You have an ADC port on your Mac, and you have a DVI input monitor, then this is what you need. In my case, a PowerMac G5 with ATI Radeon 9600 (oem) video card and an LCD monitor with DVI input. I plugged this adapter into my PowerMac's ADC port and into a DVI monitor cable (that came with my monitor, hoooked it to my LCD monitor, and *poof* instant connection. No fuss, no muss. (Note: I already had another DVI monitor plugged into the DVI connection of my ATI video c...

Doesn't work with Viewsonic monitors I suppose that this would be an OK piece of gear if you don't have a Viewsonic monitor, but if you do stay away from it. It does not work with the DVI connectors on the Viewsonic flat panel monitors. Instead you need to order the DVI II extractor from Dr. Bott. This is a major hit since Viewsonic is one of the larger and more popular monitor brands available.

Perfect Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg.com
Pros: Worked right the first time, no setup - plug n play.
Cons: none.
Other Thoughts: I see, both here and on other sites, a lot of people say this does not work. So let me tell you, I just got two HannsG 19" widescreen LCDs to connect to my PowerPC (dual G5). My video card has DVI (dual link) and ADC. Both those ...

Works great for me! Just be sure your monitor uses a DVI-D (Dual Link) connector and you'll be fine.
I believe most newer model LCD monitors that have DVI do use that type of connector. At least I was recently shopping for monitors and that's how it appeared to me. This adapter works beautifully for me with an NEC 90GX2 19" LCD that I just purchased to add a second display to my G4 MDD.
Note: DVI-D does not have the necessary analog connections so it's NOT compatible with DVI-VGA adapters....

Know what you're buying I found out the hard way. This is a ADC (male) to DVI-D (female) adapter. DVI-D *DOES NOT* contain any analog data, nor holes for the 4 analog pins on the DVI-I or DVI-A connectors to even connect. (I think I saw this eluded to with regard to ViewSonic in another review.) What this means in plain English is:
* If you plan to use this cable to plug in a cheap $5 passive DVI to VGA adapter you're out of luck. The connector won't even fit, you need a $100+ *POWERED* DVI-D to VG...

This user purchased this item from Newegg.com
Comments: If your video card has the proprietary Apple-Display-Connector (ADC), this is one of two little things you need to hook up a standard DVI monitor. The other naturally, is a DVI cable, male-to-male.
Most mid-range and higher LCD panels now have a DVI input connector. You can use these panels with a Mac ADC with this little adapter. In most cases, the Mac can query the di...

Doesn't adapt to normal PC LCD's Tech Level: average
Ownership: less than 1 day
This user purchased this item from Newegg.com
Pros: It's a great solid cable if it works for your needs
Cons: This is a ADC to DVI-I adapter. It doesn't have the 4 little pins around the big flat pin. Don't make the same mistake I did and do a little research first.

Doesn't Work With All LCDs Tech Level: high
Ownership: less than 1 day
This user purchased this item from Newegg.com
Pros: n/a
Cons: This adapter doesn't work with the HP L2335 LCD display.
Other Thoughts: Reading reviews over at Apple and some Google searches reviews that this adapter doesn't support DVI-D only connections. I wish I would have searched before buying but who would have guessed?

Dual DVI Goodness I use a PowerMac G5 with a Radeon 9600XT with, of course, a DVI and ADC port. For a while I had my monitor hooked up to the DVI output and was happy as can be. Recently, I bought an HDTV to hook my Xbox 360 up to. Since the 360 can't output a digital signal (well, not until the new black one comes out) I figured I should find a way to put the HDMI input to use. Knowing HDMI is just DVI with an audio signal, I figured buying this adapter and a DVI to HDMI cable would allow me to hook up both my m...
