This guy's homemade device might serve that function.

That won't work, it only converts DVI-I/DVI-A to VGA, since the signal is already analog.

There are no DVI-D to VGA "adapters". You need a transcoder, since they are completely different protocols. The thing being discussed on AVSForum would probably work, although that is not a commercial product.

The "DVI to dual VGA" cables being linked to on eBay are for a particular RADEON card, NOT for generic DVI->VGA conversion.

Yep the Dell ones are proprietary and will not work.

This is for a business so the homeade thing woudn't work.

You need something like this.

google

You might also trying searching for a "VGA Box", although that will mostly get you hits on things that convert composite/component/S-Video to VGA.

well then you need a vga card; dvi-d and analog do not get along.
