any way to use an Apple 15" Studio display with a PC?

Someone at work is willing to let go of an Apple 15" Studio LCD for the princely sum of USD 80. the monitor is naturally a cool piece of hardware and looks cool, but as far as I can tell, there is no way to use this with a PC...


anyone know of some interface / connector / hack that will let me use this beauty? it's too good a deal to pass up, but naturally if I can't use it, it will just sit in the corner looking nice....

the other option of course is to buy a mac, but I don't really want to go there....
 
sure... you pay shipping from Switzerland...!

also, from what I hear, it's a proprietary Apple connector, not just a DVI. It has the video, power and USB all in the same connector.

Balls. 😛

Exactly what I said above - ADC. Apple Desktop Connector. You need the convertor box that splits it into DVI/power/USB cables on the PC side.
