DVI to VGA adapter question

I just picked a GF4 Ti 4200 from PNY and it says it supports dual-head capability. Of course, since I run two CRTs, I'll need a DVI to VGA adapter. I'm looking to pick it up from Mwave, since I gotta order some 1 meter SATA cables from them anyways (Why the hell are they the only ones who have them??).

Anyways, the only carry the ATI one. I'd assume that the ATI adapter would work fine, but then, I don't wanna get it and it turn out that for some odd reason, they engineered them to work with ATI cards only.

Has anyone here used an ATI DVI to VGA adapter on a non-ATI card successfully?

Thanks!

From what I've read (while on the hunt for a DFP-DVI adapter) they're the same. Maybe someone has one you can borrow around here?
