Don't know alot about Macs, but if it is a standard VGA connector- then yes it should fit. Being a Mac, and 23 inch flat-pannel- I'm going to assume it has only a DVI connection (especially since you mentioned clips). Be carefull, there are several different DVI standards out there. You can try, but it's not likely it will fit. If you do try, don't try to force it- a good way to tell is look at your video card- and count the pin connections on it- then look at the monitor cable- and count the pins (pay attention to the configuration of where the pins are) you should be able to tell just by looking. Worst case, look and see if the monitor has a VGA connection- all you would need is a VGA cable- if you have a dual connection video card. Good luck.

I think it will connect. I have never used a Mac monitor, because I thought all monitors were universal. So I think it might, I would just plug it in and see if it works, that's the for-sure way to find out.
