My wife's machine ("Quicksilver 2001-07" single CPU 866 MHz - see
<http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Manuals/specs/desktops/L14427A_EN.pdf>)
has both ADC and VGA and is able to drive a 21" VGA CRT as well as a 17"
Apple LCD monitor. I am almost certain we only sprung for the lowest level
video card available - I can't beleive we would have spent money on a
feature we did not intend to use (we just tried it out one day on a lark
when we had an extra monitor laying around because one of the other
machines was in the shop). Or perhaps you were trying to drive two monitors
at too high a resolution?
The spec sheet footnotes do seem to indicate that the "NVIDIA
GeForce2 MX with TwinView" is necessary, and that that is not the stock
card for the 866 MHz model.
