I thought that some members of this forum had previously stated that X800 Radeon cards that had 2 DVI ports were probably PC versions which had been re-flashed, and not genuine Mac edition cards, but the 2 X800 XT Mac Edition cards on eBay auctions that I am currently bidding on, both have 2 DVI ports, and no ADC port. So, I guess I am mistaken about what others have written, or anyone claiming that Mac Edition cards always have an ADC port, are incorrect.
You could ask Yasu, David.
I shipped him an Apple X800XT, but its been awhile and I am not 100% sure about the issue.
However, even the X1900GT PCIe G5 video card has one DVI and one ADC connection.
Anyway, here is a photo of an Apple card.

The bottom connector is clearly larger and appears to be an ADC connector.
Another dead giveaway is the color and the absence of a secondary (molex) power connector.
The only Apple video card I am aware of that we support that has two DVI connectors is the Radeon 9600.
