Its good to know that at least I can use this monitor on a PC with ahome-made
adapter..
I guess I will keep it around, never know when I will stumble across
a Mac that needs this type of monitor.. I only paid $9.99 at the
local Goodwill store for it so its no big loss..
My Thanks to Aron and Zane for the great Web sites on the Mac
monitor.. I book marked'em for future reference..
