    I read the specs? I did!

    Regarding the issue about the mini-DVI to VGA adapter that does not fit the ibook, it is useful to point out that nowhere on the package does Apple indicate that different model laptops require different mini-DVI adapters. It would be useful if Apple simply wrote, on the packaging, "This adapter fits the following models ...". This is not a difficult thing to do. Moreover, the average consumer is going to assume that a mini-DVI adapter made by Apple will fit all "mini-DVI" ports, unless, of course, Apple makes it clear that this isn't the case.

    This said, the adpater works just as it is supposed to when you get the right one.     …More

    Wow, I love it!

    I recently converted to the iMac (6-10 months ago) and had the iMac and PC next to each other. I no longer use the PC but had a very nice 19 inch VGA LCD display. I figured I may be able to use it as a 2nd display on the iMac and ditch the PC all together. Bought the mini DVI adapter, plugged it in, plugged the monitor into the adapter, and it JUST WORKED! No drivers, no reboots! I then simply chose the display size I wanted for the 2nd monitor, but both the iMac display and 2nd LCD are in high res and working flawless! Fantastic freedom and option on the iMac, thanks Apple! I have to encourage all who want a 2nd monitor to try this out! Works on the new Intel iMacs. …More

    Video Adapters should last longer than 4 months
    • Written by RS from Ann Arbor

    If you order one of these treat it very gently, be careful how you pack it when traveling, etc. My first one broke in 4 months (the wires internal to the rubber cable enclosure shorted - so the screen would drop out certain colors). And then, when I ordered and paid for a replacement, the wrong adapter was shipped to me. The sales web page does not bother to mention that there are different versions of the PowerBook G4, which use different types of video ports (mini-DVI and mini-VGA). Make sure you know which one you need before ordering. An improved sales web page would at least show all the VGA adapters in one place, so one could see all the choices. …More

    Warning!

    I bought this to connect my monitor to my computer. First of all, why can't they just put a standard VGA and/or DVI adapter on the computer? Second, it doesn't stay in the computer very well. Third, you have to wiggle it and bend it just right or the color on the monitor will be messed up. I think that is because of a short in the wire. Last, it should be cheaper. …More

    Brilliant product!
    • Written by JV from Sydney

    I put a lot of effort into researching the exact specs and any other hardware I would need when I bought a white Macbook in April 2009. I really wanted to continue using the 19 inch monitor belonging to my old Dell, so I came to the conclusion that this cable was the one I needed. Mini DVI to VGA.

    It arrived with the MacBook, I plugged in my 19 inch monitor and BAM!
    It worked perfectly!
    I couldn't believe how easy it was.

    System preferences made it easy to adjust the settings of both screens and wallpapers at the same time, and I've never had a problem with it. Been using it for almost a year now. I take it to work and chuck it in my bag, I wouldn't say I treat it like gold, so it can take quite a bit or rough stuff.

    Although in response to one of the other comments about the inner wires of the rubber cable coming loose, I can honestly say I've never bent them. So if you don't bend your cable, it shall work as perfectly as mine!     …More
