Apple 17" LCD - PC compatibility.

[Guest]

Hi . Does anyone know if the new Apple 17" LCD is compatible with DVI from a PC based graphics card .
On the FAQ of the Apple site it claims not to be , though this could just be in terms of endorsements and guarantees , or marketing .

Anyhow the Apple 17" looks magic . 350:1 contrast ratio etc
Not a bad price for present day LCD .

Any info or interest would be much appreciated ..Thanks .


LCD 's for the masses .

The cheeper of the adapters is:
