Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Many Windows based notebooks are now equipped with VGA & HDMI ports, but no DVI port. Many external monitors are equipped with VGA & DVI ports, but no HDMI port. While the analog VGA connection works, a digital connection works better. As it happens DVI is simply a subset of the HDMI standard. This cable works great for making digital connections from a notebook with a HDMI port to an external monitor with a DVI port.
