Why are you paying 50$ for a cable lol monoprice.com is your friend 3 bucks for a 6 foot cable that will do the same thing. screw the crap you get in the store.

A) Russia is to teh internetz what Somali is to shipping. No self-respecting site ships here cuz everyone knows we always only ever use OTHER people's credit card #'s (statistically, a reasonably true stereotype)  ;D
B) Never said I did, lol. All I meant to illustrate was how prices for Y-cables or VGA switchboxes probably aren't as intimidating in the HD age as they were to previous generations. Btw, not all VGA cables are created equal, one that shipped with a Samsung monitor I've got lying around conveys the signal just great... but somehow manages to cut contrast/brightness by 50%. Lolwhathuh? Yeh, my reaction as well, but I compared it to a normal cable on different screens repeatedly, w/ same results. Dunno how that's even scientifically possible, but it does exist.

I still go WTMFBBQSAUCE at $50 cables... I could buy an entire game with that money, or get a decent figure, or 2-3 posters, or a few doujins, or a wallscroll, or... OR SO MANY OTHER THIGNS
