    Is it 15 pin MINI d-sub or just d-sub?

    what's the difference? cause I just got an LCD with "mini d-sub"...

    gotta know immediately if it will work!

    Hey man. Looking at the back of mine now, it's just a regular looking monitor connector. Like the kind you'd find on the back of your PC.

    Hi romulus

    No worries man, when display monitors use the term D-SUB connector, they mean the 15 pin D-SUB connector. Some people refer to it as a mini D-SUB, because D-SUB connectors come in 25 pin and 37 pin configurations. Ironically, serial cables use a 9 pin D-SUB and I haven't heard of anyone referring to those as mini D-SUB!
