Connect Macbook to Westinghouse Monitor - ?

I am looking to buy a cable to connect my Macbook to an lcd monitor to get an extended display. I have a Macbook I bought in 2008 running on Mac OSX 10.5.8 and I want to connect it to a Westinghouse LCD Monitor model L1928NV. What cable/adaptor should I buy?

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.5.8), Westinghouse L1928NV

Depends on whether you have a model 4,1 or 5,1. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.


The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody has a Mini DisplayPort. The Early 2008 model 4,1 has a Mini-DVI port. Each would take a different adapter
