G5 two monitors question

I have an older single processor G5 with an Apple display connected to the ADC port and a VGA monitor connected to the DVI port (using a VGA to DVI adapter). No problem.

I want to take the Apple display away and in its place put another VGA monitor.

1. Can I run two VGA monitors from the G5?
2. If so, how do I connect one to the ADC port?

I don't see any direct connection type adapter out there to connect a VGA monitor to a ADC port.

Thanks.

Hi, loock for sth.like the "Dr. Bott DVI Extractor II" or "Dr. Bott VGA Extractor"

You want to run 2 VGA (analog) monitors ?

Your goal should be to run 2 DVI (digital) monitors !

BTW...are the VGA monitors in your scheme CRTs ?

That's a separate rant...

Apple sells ACD to DVI converters. You can put DVI to VGA converters on those and they work just fine. I've done that and it work just fine.

The monitor in question is a CRT.

I did some extensive research and didn't realize that Apple discontinued the ADC type connector. My 20" cinema display can't be used with a Macbook Pro for instance without needing a $100. adapter. I might as well just keep it with the G5.

To clarify, I presently have a 20" Apple cinema (apparently older style) connected to the ADC port, and a 17" CRT connected to the DVI port (using an DVI to VGA adapter).

Thanks for all the replies.
