    You can get DP or Mini-DP to DVI adaptors.

    All along the watchtower the watchmen watch the eternal return.

    Yeah thats not a problem.

    However, I wonder if the human eye is able to tell the difference between a native HDMI/DP display to a DVI one with a converter (IF there is any difference between HDMI DP and DVI).

    Ive never seen a native HDMI or DP computer screen connected so idk if there is any improvement at all.

    like he said, they are the same... ive heard some unsubstantiated stuff that HDMI can handle more color bits and stuff, but other than such mysticism, they are the same. its not like converting an analog signal, anyway, the conversion is lossless since it is digital.

    I remember a comparison between a Samsung HDTV and a LCD for computer only

    The LCD one won in quality, but as expected, the HDTV won when it comes to "more use".

    It was made by Maximum PC. I guess it all depends on what you plan on using it with. Me, when it comes to buying a new computer screen, I stick with computer LCDs and dont look at HDTVs.
