I have a Macbook and I want to plug it in to my LCD monitor so I am hunting for that cable. I went to Digital Mall in PJ and the adapter was RM200. I went to Low Yat and the guy said he can sell it to me for RM 140. So, i am wondering if there are any cheaper places I can get it or is are there any other third party adapters that can perform the same function?

I'm not aware of any third-party adapters that do it.

It should be 109, if someone is charging you more it's a ripoff. I got an adapter (the DVI one, but it's the same price) at Sunway.

The Sunway shop you're talking bout is the one at the highest floor rite? It closed down already, sadly.
