But isn't that basically converting the signal to vga, and thus defeating the purpose?Insert Value Here.Comment

you asked if it could be done, I showed ya how ; )
Personally, I'd just buy the Sony 23" LCD to use on a PC.

hoax, you can use a converter to go from the monitors ADC connector to DVI, so the signal will remain digital and pure (not analog VGA)... Apples ADC connector is really just DVI combined w/ power leads...
the only drawback to using these on PC's is that you cannot adjust the brightness or contrast of the display, as this functionality is part of the Mac OS and not a physical control on the monitor... since they ship at maximum brightness this isn't usually an issue for most people.
it really isn't a good time to be buying one of Apples high-end displays though, as the product line is overdue already for new models... there are some pretty good rumors regarding their new monitor offering coming soon, a 30" widescreen cinema display, probably worth the wait.
oh, and send me a new shirt! my wife took the last one and won't give it back..!...promise her a defamation, tell her where the rain will fall..Comment

the price will definitely plummet w/ the advent of the new models, as they will be in a new style to match the new G5 towers, machined aluminum chassis... the earlier cinema displays will go at good prices on the secondhand/refurb market i'm sure.Maybe the price will go down on the 23"...I don't need the 30..
so, about that shirt..
