Re: What are the monitor connections on Mac mini and Mac Book Pro?
Not that DisplayPort isn't just an Apple thing. The industry is generally moving away from DVI and HDMI to display port so Apple is just ahead of the curve (as usual). http://www.displayport.org/ CB Brett Campbell wrote: Thank you.

RE: What are the monitor connections on Mac mini and Mac Book Pro?
It isn't Mini DVI. Its Apple's own mini display port connector. So, to go to a TV, you need their DVI adaptor, then you need to get an HDMI to DVI cable.

What are the monitor connections on Mac mini and Mac Book Pro?
What are the monitor connections on the Mac mini purchased March 09, and the Mac Book Pro purchased July 09? I thought they both have mini DVI, but the mini DVI to DVI connector that came with the Mac mini doesn't fit in any of the slots on the Mac Book Pro. I'm determining if I need to purchase separate accessories to connect them to a TV via HDMI. Thanks.
