G3 iBook and 20" Apple Display

[floatingspirit]

Can I connect and use these two without causing any excessive stress or problems one with one device or the other until my G5 Powermac arrives? Here in Japan there's a 2-3 week shipping time listed at the Apple Store. Will my iBook even be able to power that monster screen?

Thanks for pardoning my ignorance...

Your iBook only supports a maximum resolution of 1024x768 pixels. And that resolution on a 20" flat-panel display is just a pain.

Besides, you'd need to purchase a ADC adapter for your iBook.

Save the money and wait until your G5 arrives.

Thanks for the advice. Could you maybe reach into your pocket and grab one for me?

(That's an inside joke, no pun intended)

I guess this the place where someone's supposed to jump in and say, "That's not an ADC adapter in his pocket."
