Anyone know anything about DVI?

Right for my macbook I got a mini DVI to DVI connector. Its the form of DVI highlighted in the image below.

Why so many types of DVI?! I have a DVI to VGA adapter but its a different type of DVI. Unbelievable.



Anyways.......
My monitor [benq t905] looks like it takes the same type of DVI. Its a female connection. So is the connection on my adapter. So I need a male to male DVI lead is that right?

Also, Anyone know a good place to buy one of these for a reasonable price, online or in Dublin.

Thanks a million for any thoughts on this..

Yeah - you need a dvi-male to dvi-male Cable - you can check this by looking at the connector on your monitor and the one on the adapter and they shoud be identical

Hope this helps:)
