not sure of price but they sell lots of cable n stuff - and if they dont have the cable, they make it! chances are they will have connectors etc. also - give them a call

Do you want somthing like that or somthing else? I can try and make you one if you live in brisbane.

Also, DVI is for mac right?

Is there any way to conver a VGA to DVI?

I have a mac hardware device that can convert the mac video to a tv connector. I was wondering if it would be possible to hook this to a PC?

Pc - > Mac tv converter -> TV

? any help would be apreciated.

DVI isn't just for macs. It's on a lot of "higher end" PC video cards too. It's handy for good LCDs because they use digital. Pity my cheap LCD only has analog, so I convert from digital-analalog-digital again. Sigh.

Harris tech sell them for $29. But they're ATI only. Although, for the life of me I can't see why it would make a difference DVI is DVI no matter what manufacturer... Still, the price is about the same as the other mob - so it looks like you're up for about $30 either way.

I believe this is what you're after. I'm thinking about ordering one myself, so perhaps we could order two to save on transfer costs. to get two would cost all up $21.20 each.
