The pin configuration is the same the diference is in the resolution supported by the cable, for most applications VGA is fine. I still have a 2006 MBP and have used a VGA (as opposed to SVGA) and it has worked fine. Also costs less.
Here is a brief explanations and a table guide of resolutions.
Hope this clears things up for you.
VGA or SVGA ?
