I am planning to buy DELL P2314H monitor in order to make programming more comfortable. I am worried about one thing, however. It has display port, DVI-D and VGA. My laptop only supports HDMI and VGA. Its obvious that VGA shouldn't be used for higher end monitors so I checked out HDMI to DVI-D conversions. What I found was a variety of cables with one side being HDMI and one DVI-D. Then I found that in order to make sure that this works, your monitor has to support HDCP (whatever that is). So I am asking you: will I be able to connect my laptop to this monitor through HDMI connection to monitors DVI-D?
Also, if you have any tips for a sub 200 dollar monitor - please go ahead :)
