I am looking for a DVI to VGA Adapter for a Mac Mini that you may not be using and would like to send to me for the cost of postage.

I am looking for this one:

NOT this one:

Thanks.

does a normal DVI-VGA adapter not work? Or do you just want it to be white and the one you want?

I know, but it is not for me.

The preference is that it be the white (because it matches) little one (there are actual space issues).

How does the one with the cable not better suit the space issues? If you have the solid adapter then the VGA cable goes right into it and it sticks out the back like 3". With the cabled one, it only sticks out about 1.5" and then you have the flexible cable.

Anyway, that aside, you may want to check ebay.

How come you want one over the other?

It's not for me. I recommended other options, but they want the one that came with the Mini.

I know, stupid thread.

Best Buy sells a Dynex adapter that has no cable, it is probably much more expensive there than elsewhere, but I know that they have it.

No it is not the one that came with the original Mini... but those are probably hard to find.

Yeah, I mean, if there are space issues, the one with the cable sticks out less from the back of the mini with a monitor attached than the non-cable one would.

However, I have one I can dig up and send to you if you'd like AND I need to go to the post office tomorrow anyways.

Hey Motionman, man...

I have the adapter but need to know where to send it...

Just so you can at least visually see the size difference behind the computer between the two adapters.

Cheers!
