<font color=blue>Sorry dude, but no cigar.

The Cinema Display, ableit probably the best damn screen around, is a no go for PC people like myself. It has an Apple Display Connector which carries the video, USB and power signals on the same line. I know of no 3rd party hardware connector that breaks out the signal so that it can be use by a PC. Not to say it isn't impossible, but I imagine Apple worked hard at keeping their propietary interface, well, propietary.

There are converters you can use, or if you're good at splicing wires, do it yourself. Now as to the comment that Apple Cinema Displays are the best damn displays, I don't find it so. The 15" model is pure crap. It has color problems, Response Time problems, etc. As for the others, I can find better.
