Well, it's Hack-a-Day, and it's kind of assumed that you have the hacker ethos of 'if you don't know how it works, poke at it until it does work...or blows up." And if you read the original thread, he does say he'll try to cobble together a schematic, so check back in a bit. The link they show also has a link to an earlier entry for doing this, where the cabling is explicated: <http://doesntexistat.blogspot.com/2010/11/hacking-apple-studio-display.html> And the always useful Pinouts.RU <http://pinouts.ru/> Has TONS of connector and other such very useful info. Such as : ADC pinout: <http://pinouts.ru/Video/apple_adc_pinout.shtml> DVI pinout: <http://pinouts.ru/Video/dvi_pinout.shtml> etc. You trace the existing cables to their connectors inside the system, and the power, USB and video are pretty easy to figure out, at that point.
