I have an old Toshiba desktop TV that I want to use as a second monitor for a very new MacMini. All that the display has is VGA input. I already have an Apple display in my HDMI port, so I can't use a VGA to HDMI adapter. Is there such a thing as a VGA to Thunderbolt adapter that supports Lion (Mac OS X 10.7)?

Monoprice has what you want.

Apple as well.

This is a hardware thing, it has nothing to do with whether or not Lion supports it.

A quick google search confirms that there is an adapter from VGA to a mini display port. That means you can use a vga display in your thunderbolt port. Thunderbolt is backward compatible so the VGA to mini display adapter should work for Thunderbolt
