When I clicked this link it showed a mini display port to HDMI cable which I don't think will work since the monitor needs DVI. Try this mini DisplayPort to DVI cable: http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10246&cs_id=1024604&p_id=5999&seq=1&format=2 As an Amazon Associate, MacRumors earns a commission from qualifying purchases made through links in this post.
