Thanks, Bruce, that looks exactly like what I need. Now for the
punchline: Is there any way to get the Apple Cinema Display HD to work
with a VGA KVM? I realize that the adapter will allow one to use a
standard DVI connector to work with the Apple monitor. But would it be
as simple as connecting a DVI-to-VGA adapter to the DVI-to-ADC
adapter? I've got plenty of DVI-to-VGA adapters floating around, but
they're all designed to allow a DVI card to connect to a VGA monitor.

I think I have a case of TLA fatigue...
