[QUOTE="Kash, post: 551731, member: 23444"] Which one you need depends wholly on what connector is available on your TV. If you have a DVI port, then get the one you linked to. If you have a VGA port, then you're going to need to get the mini-DVI to VGA adapter. The adapters aren't very long, a few inches at best. It was designed this way to allow you to buy a size of your choosing. This way you're not stuck with either extra cable or not having enough. I personally have a six foot cord for when I want to connect to a TV and it works great. Be sure to get one that has the same type of connector at the end [/QUOTE]
