I have just received my dualie a day before I expected it (it's absolutely gorgeous!!! )) but my 20" cinema display will not show up until tomorrow. When I tried to connect my cube's 15" studio display to the tower it seemed that the 2 little clips on each side of the display connector have no way to connect on the tower which is designed to receive 2 small screws. Am I missing a connector or is my extreme excitement and happiness affecting my ability to properly assess the situation? Thanks for helping.

Would your display happen to be an ADC or a DVI model? If it's ADC, it should simply slide into the ADC connector, and if DVI, attach it to the DVI connector. Your manual should show which is which if you're confused, and congrats on your G5!

Thanks AssassyN! and thank you also for your feedback. In my state of excitement it didn't even occurred to me to try the OTHER connector, the one without the screws!! duh!

Thanks again.
