Hi all -
I'm finally retiring my G5 and just bought a new Mac Pro. I didn't buy a new monitor, 'cause I still really like the Studio that I got with the G5. Go to set everything up and find that the old monitor has a custom connector on it that's not DVI - it's got extra pins to support USB ports in the monitor casing, and the the plug is oval rather than D-shell.
I did some searching online and haven't found a reference to this connector style even existing. Is there an adapter I can buy somewhere, or do I need a new DVI monitor? (Also, I assume that even if such an adapter exists, a monitor from '03 is not going to support HDCP and therefore I won't be able to play any of my HD stuff from iTunes...)
Thanks!!
