And from reading this, you would think that the DVI-to-ADC adapter 
works with the new 12-inch PowerBook as well as with the "old" 
15-inch PowerBook and the new 17-inch PowerBook. But in fact, Apple 
didn't put a DVI-out connector on the 12-inch PB. So in its case, the 
adapter can't get at what it needs to do its thing.

But maybe even a good 12-inch LCD isn't big enough for Photoshop's 
palettes. Does anyone know, perhaps from experience with an iBook? I 
think the conventional wisdom has for some time been that a 17-inch 
CRT or a 15-inch LCD makes a good second monitor Photoshop. But both 
have been improving (although my eyes haven't).

Thanks.
