[QUOTE="sverdon, post: 1284345, member: 211832"] Did a little bit of research and I found out the following... Mini-DVI to Mini DP does not scale correctly so you do actually need to buy a converter. There is currently only one company that makes this converter and that is Atlona. They seem to be a legit company and the link to the converter can be found here: [url=http://www.atlona.com/Atlona-Dual-Link-DVI-to-Mini-DisplayPort-Converter-USB-Powered.html]Atlona Technologies connectivity solutions, cables, splitters, extenders, distribution amplifiers, converters, switchers for commercial, professional and industrial applications[/url]. This converter basically means that you would only have to purchase a Mini-DVI to DVI cable that apple itself sells and then connect that cable to the converter. It can be done! It just takes a couple cables and a not so small lump of money. Hope this helps anyone who has the same issue as I did! [/QUOTE]
