confusion about dvi-i/dvi-d and external monitor

[tast01]

I want to connect my macbook pro (dvi-i) to this monitor. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824009163

Im confused on what cable I need. It looks like the monitor has a dvi-d connector and my macbook pro is dvi-i. Are they backwards compatible? Any suggestions on what cable I need?

it's fine, the 4 pins that are missing on the monitor are the pins that the VGA signal is on.

so the DVI cable that comes with the monitor should be all that you need
