do you have to buy a cable for the Apple Cinema Display 24"?

[btownguy]

Looking at the Apple online store, the 24" Apple Cinema Display comes with:

What's in the Box
* LED Cinema Display
* AC power cord
* Cleaning cloth
* Printed documentation

So, my question is, do you have to buy the actual connector cable separate, or is it permanently attached to the display? I would like to connect it to a brand new MacBook Pro 15".

Cable is attached to the display.

Is a product refresh on the 24" cinema display expected soon?

Yeah it comes with a short cable attached to it. You can get an extension at monoprice if you want it longer.

Keep in mind since it is one main cord that branches off to a magsafe plug, USB and mini DP plug...

You will also need (in addition to the mini DP extension) a USB extension (if you want to utilize the built-in speakers and USB ports) and another power brick.

But, to answer your main question, yes it is included with the display.

Apple Cinema Display introduced - 2004
Simply refresh adjusting brightness, contrast ratio - 2006
Apple LED display - 2009

So about 5 years for a design change...
