[X4U] VGA on G5

[Paul Moortgat]

Hi Scott,

I ordered a G5/2.5 and a 30 inch cinema monitor (with the 6800 card)  
This is still a month away before I get it (I hope) and thought to late 
about it because I want to connect an AVerkey550 
<http://www.aver.com/products/comptv_AVerKey550.shtml> to it to tape 
the visual effects from iTunes and the music on tape.  The AVerKey550 
needs an VGA connector and the 6800 card has no VGA out.
Can I use the second connector on the 6800 card to make a connection?
