Got this a day earlier than I expected and it works great. I use it to hook up my unibody macbook to our 46 inch lcd. I plug it into my mini display port to vga connector and hook it up to the tv and it works just like that. Text is super readable, the quality is as great as looking at my laptop screen. And totally worth it because the big box stores want $25 + for the same sized cable.
