Extra long VGA lead

Hi All, Anyone know how long a VGA lead can be before signal quality suffers? I want to watch live sport from my office pc on my tv in the lounge, a distance of around 30 feet.

From a mains-powered PC the signal should be strong enough to do 30 feet, the cable won't be cheap though. You'll also need an audio cable as VGA is video only.
