Do the old Apple Cinema Displays work with the new Mac Pros?

I am sure its a dumb question, but i have an older mac cinema display with the pins not mini dvi, that will work on the new mac pros right?

Sorry for the dumb question, I just know apple loves to keep changing those plugs.

Do you have the Aluminium Cinema Displays? If so, then yes, they will work, as they have a DVI input and the Mac Pro has a DVI output.

Or do you have one of the older plastic models?

Any monitor in the last 20 years will work . . . with the right connection. Most monitors made since 2004 have DVI as the standard. Probably every monitor in the last 20 years has VGA, and you can get an adapter from Apple to use these. Apple makes all the adapters necessary to literally allow any monitor to work.
