Apple iBook does NOT have DVI Output


I won a eBay bid on Apple mini DVI to DVI adapter and planned to use it to connect to my Dell LCD monitor’s DVI port.

But, I was wrong!
Apple iBook does NOT have DVI output! The mini DVI like port on iBook is actually only a Video Out Port, which does not support DVI.

Apple-Mini-Dvi
Left: mini DVI port. Right: iBook video out.

My two cents

A lesson learned. The mini DVI to DVI adapter is for PowerBook, not for iBook. iBook does not has DVI output. :(

    The original 12 inch model PowerBook (867MHz) has the same miniVGA output. It sucks.
