This adapter featuring copper contacts converts DVI-I video signals into VGA analog.
Posted by: CAB2007
from NY
After stopping at several stores to try to find a DVI cable to connect my monitor to my new MAC computer (MAC computer came with DVI adaptor and monitor cable VGA but also has connection for DVI if have cable), it seemed easier to just get a DVI-VGA adaptor to connect the monitor to the computer. Best BUy had such an adaptor. However, when I got it home and tried to connect the apple DVI connector to the DYNEX DVI-VGA adaptor, it was clear that the two were not compatible. The wide pin of the male DVI adaptor was wider than the slot for it on the apple connector (plus there are extra pins for which there are no holes around that slot). My monitor has the same format as the apple connector so something is not right here. As Best Buy is not right around the corner from my house, I am more than a little annoyed that I have to go back out of my way again to return this item....
What's great about it: nothing
What's not so great: does not fit DVI female slot on monitor or apple DVI connector
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
