DVI or VGA cable?..

Yeah so, I'm buying some Benq monitor which supports Digital Interface and Analog,

offcourse people would go for the Digital interface cable, but whats the major difference?..offcourse picture quality, but by how much? cause I really don't wana spend alot of money on one cable which may give me no biggie..

thanks,

remember that DVI isn't usually onboard.
I have Vitiligo, it is there, but it is white (it = my eyebrow)

Analog is fine. I can notice the difference between digital and analog if I look carefully, but they are usually very close in quality

Given the choice, with both cables, most people would choose DVI.

there's a difference.... but you have to strain to see it... get DVI anyways cuz ur LCD supports it so might as well use it....
