SO I came across an ad for a Apple ADC flat screen. price was right so I inquired(figured it was either a Tube one or 15". reply I got was, it was last used on a G4 mini, don't know if it will work with anything newer. huh...

so I bit. ended up being a 17" studio(LCD) with an ADC to DVI adaptor WOOT! hooked up to my macbook now.

only downside, it's really a cumbersome setup. there are wires everywhere!

Yeah those ADC>DVI have extra wire they don't need. I use one to connect the Sawtooth to my 15" Studio Display. The are quite expensive too. I paid around $70 on ebay and that was on the low end of the price range.

As long as the price was right, nice job comrade! Those adapters are EXPENSIVE!

You can also build your own adapter. There are several howtos you can find via search. I made one as an internal adapter for use in a G3 tower. The reason I did this was to avoid the octopus effect of the Apple adapter squatting on the desktop - kind of spoils the point of the Studio Display one-cable design.
