Can you buy such a thing?  I thought only Apple supplied display cards 
with that connector.  Do you have any examples of cards that have an 
ADC on them?

A related question is this...  Are there any KVM / toggle boxes that 
allow you to use a single ADC-equipped display with, say, two different 
ADC-equipped Cubes?

Thanks!  This is great!
