Is there a way to connect an Apple Cinema Display to a PC with a standard 15 hole video output.

I am trying to connect a Dell Inspiron notebook with a 15 hole video output to my Apple 22" cinema display.

My Dell has a nVidia G-Force FX 128 MB graphics card

I saw some converters for VGA-ADC, and DVI to ADC.
My PC does not have a DVI output so I would have to get the DVI PC-card

has anyone tried any of these options and had success?

VGA (analog) to ADC is gonna cost you about $300 for an adapter. I'd say "skip it."

Stupid cheapy PC notebooks still put VGA on there... WTH? I mean putting a DVI connector on there and bundling a $10 converter makes it so much more flexible, but that's what you get when you're locked in a vicous price war.
