New 27″ iMacs Can’t Be Used As External Monitors
October 27th, 2009 Posted in Technology by Bertrand
At the moment, the new line of 27″ iMacs can’t be used as external displays for devices using the DisplayPort to DVI adapter that Apple sells. As the new system only works with devices equipped with a Mini DisplayPort of their own. This is real bad news for people whose devices such as laptops and/or video game consoles only support VGA, DVI, or HDMI outputs. Though, it is expected that Apple itself, or another third party company will develop a new adapter that works. Until then, there’s nothing anyone can do.
