Hey guys, weird question! I am ordering a computer this weekend, and I don't have enough $$$ for a monitor. I have an old Apple Multiple Scan 15" Display, that I want to use, but I need a converter, of course.

It's the basic Old Macintosh style connector, and I was looking for what kind of an adapter I need. I know the image quality will suck ASS. But, I need a monitor. Here are the pics of it, is this what I need, or do I have the connections backwards? (I'm confused, Male, Female, which side it is, the picture of the item doesn't help much.)

I noticed my Mac Monitor is missing 1 pin, would that be bad? You can still use the monitor right?
