[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1290572, member: 56379"] Yes...that's was the idea when Apple came out (about 10+ years ago) with the CRT and then LCD displays the "ADC" connector. The idea was to simplify things with just a single cable (the power for the monitor comes from the computer). Be very glad that you're using this monitor with a Powermac G5 (which I'm assuming the video card has an ADC port on it...many of them did). Otherwise if you were trying to connect this monitor to a newer computer...I would have to advise you to basically use it as a door-stop...and buy a newer monitor.;) HTH, - Nick [/QUOTE]
