I have a 17" Apple flat panel monitor with an ADC connection. I was wondering if it's possible to connect it to one of the new iBooks?? Do I need to buy an expensive connector? Thanks for any help

Do you have to buy a connector for the Powerbook to use an Apple Flat Panel?

Dang, what is wrong with Apple?? They pride themselves as being a company that "makes everything so that everything works well together." Customers shouldn't have to spend extra big $$ to buy a connector just so an Apple monitor will work with an Apple computer.
