I think they're my only option, so I hope they're decent.

For a bit more, you can get one of these boxes:

I just bought one a few days ago -- haven't gotten it yet.  As far as I can tell, they should both work the same.  I opted for the box because I plan on using it for rgb instead of vga, and it seems easier to hack the box than the cable.  Check this thread for more info:

They use the cable and it works fine.

Ok thanks. I heard the connectors on that particular box were weak, but if you're hacking it, then who cares.

Ack.  What do you mean the connectors are weak?
