Early '08 Macbook Pro DVI Port
 
What type of DVI Cable should I be looking for for my Macbook Pro. I want to use it as a 2nd hookup for my monitor for my dualscreen setup but I have no clue which kind of DVI cable to get. Can anybody find me anything from Best Buy that is affordable.

I do NOT want the DVI to VGA adapter because my Monitor has 2 ports, one for VGA and one for DVI. The ports are nearly identical except the MB Pro has a cross on the right while the monitor has one horizontal line. Also there are 4 holes surrounding the cross on the Macbooks.

Any DVI-I cable will be suitable for your needs.
Remembering it's a DIGITAL signal; don't listen to the prevailing sales crap about needing a high quality cable ~ just buy one that suits your price range.

Thank you! I would just simply get the Converter thingie but then i would have to crawl on the floor everytime i wanted to do a dualscreen.
