Hello guys, I have a 15" macbook pro that comes with a full dvi port.
I want to get an LG 23" monitor for nothing more than just using my macbook pro as a desktop when I'm home. It has dvi, hdmi and vga connectors.
The question I have is, all the monitors I've seen come with a dvi-d port, while my mac has a dvi-i (these names according to wikipedia). Which cable should I buy to connect the two? Do I have to buy an adapter? Is it easier to forget about my monitor and find another one with different ports?
My dvi-i port has 24 pin holes plus another 4, while the dvi-d the monitor has the same 24 minus the other 4 on the side. I think reading wikipedia on dvi really confused me, can you help me out?
